Employment is at an All-Time High

But is this coming at a cost? 

It is clear to see that the state of economy in Britain is improving and unemployment is falling dramatically with more work becoming available. However, it has been reported that a record number of people in employment in the UK are working part-time because they cannot find permanent positions.

Although the decrease in unemployment is positive news it has been met with some criticism stating that these figures show "degraded working condition, reduced rights and an attack on secure, stable work" (http://metro.co.uk/2013/11/13/part-time-britain-millions-more-working-but-theyre-earning-less-4186199/)

We can all see that the economy is not likely to reach a balance over night, could the increase in employment alone be a step in the right direction? At TIME we love to see people placed and happy in permanent positions, its all about what's right for you at the time.

We'd love to hear your views on this subject.
