Full Time Employees Vs Part Time Employees Benefits and Drawbacks Collective Memory Game.

Full Time Employees Benefits and Drawbacks BenefitsDrawbacks Higher output may be possible, as workers are able to commit to long hours. Higher cost of employing people full time. Employees are available all of the time to handle unexpected events. Full time employees might not give the business flexibility in terms of an ability to meet an increase in demand. Might be able to build better relationship with each other. May build up better relationships with customers and provide good customer service.

Part Time Employees Benefits and Drawbacks BenefitsDrawbacks Flexibility of workers makes it easier to meet frequent changes in demand. Part time staff may find it more difficult to access training. Part time workers can be used when there are busy periods of trade e.g. hotels, supermarkets. It may be more difficult to communicate with part time employees. Allows employees to manage their home commitments e.g. children alongside a job Part time employees may be less able to build close relationships with each other and customers. Some part time staff job share, allowing a greater range of skills and talent to exist in the business. Costs of employing a part time employee may not be much lower than a full time employee.
