Abstract | Multiple job holding is a difficult phenomenon to measure. It is plausible that patient care workers employed in long-term care settings are more likely than average to engage in alternative work arrangements such as informal home health care services providers. Beyond the challenges posed by a viral pandemic, employment in LTC remains at a competitive disadvantage with other health care settings and many other sectors of employment generally. |
