America Counts: Stories Behind the Numbers
A small but steady number of American workers have more than one job, because either they need extra income or they want to gain more experience or explore different interests.
Even though the majority of workers held a single job in 2013, 8.3% of workers had more than one job — and most held both jobs for the entire year.
Women were more likely than men to have a second job — 8.8% compared with 8.0%, respectively. While most of these multijob workers only had two jobs, a small percentage (6.9%) worked more than two jobs.
