14 part-time jobs most likely to offer health insurance
Want health insurance, but don’t want to work a full-time job to get it? Consider one of these part-time jobs where employers are most likely to offer you this health care benefit.
There can be many benefits to working a part-time job. Working moms and dads can spend more time with their kids, students can put their earnings toward their tuition, and aspiring business owners can have a steady cashflow while pursuing their passion. Heck, some part-time jobs even pay just as well as a full-time job.
But what about health insurance?
According to Monster's 2019 State of the Candidate survey, 57% of respondents said affordable health insurance is an important benefit when considering a new job. Yet, only 34% of employers extend health care coverage to part-time workers, per a survey from the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM).
So how do you find a part-time gig with benefits?
