Abstract
Around one in five Australian workers are now engaged in casual employment. Although subject to sub-standard employment protections, casual employment has been defended as providing a pathway into permanent employment as well as a b strategy for women juggling work and care. This paper presents preliminary research exploring the role of casual work in these key market transitions, drawing on evidence from the first 4 waves of the Australia at Work study - a five year longitudinal study of the working lives of over 8,000 Australian workers.
