Employment is a relationship between two parties, usually based on a contract where work is paid for, where one party, which may be a corporation, for profit, not-for-profit organization, co-operative or other entity is the employer and the other is the employee.

Employees work in return for payment, which may be in the form of an hourly wage, by piecework or an annual salary, depending on the type of work an employee does or which sector she or he is working in.

Employees in some fields or sectors may receive gratuities, bonus payment or stock options.

In some types of employment, employees may receive benefits in addition to payment.

Benefits can include health insurance, housing, disability insurance or use of a gym.

Employment is typically governed by employment laws or regulations or legal contracts.

A person's job is their role in society.

A job is an activity, often regular and performed in exchange for payment.

Many people have multiple jobs (e.g., parent, homemaker, and employee).

A person can begin a job by becoming an employee, volunteering, starting a business, or becoming a parent.

The duration of a job may range from an hour (e.g., odd jobs) to a lifetime (e.g., judges).

A part-time contract is a form of employment that carries fewer hours per week than a full-time job.

They work in shifts but remain while off duty and during annual leave.

The shifts are often rotational.

Workers are considered to be part-time if they commonly work fewer than 30 hours per week.

According to the International Labour Organization, the number of part-time workers has increased from one-fourth to a half in the past 20 years in most developed countries, excluding the United States.

There are many reasons for working part-time, including the desire to do so, having one's hours cut back by an employer and being unable to find a full-time job.

The International Labour Organisation Convention 175 requires that part-time workers be treated no less favourably than full-time workers.

An income tax is a tax imposed on individuals or entities (taxpayers) that varies with the income or profits (taxable income) of the taxpayer.

Details vary widely by jurisdiction.

Equal opportunity is a stipulation that all people should be treated similarly, unhampered by artificial barriers or prejudices or preferences, except when particular distinctions can be explicitly justified.

The aim according to this often complex and contested concept is that important jobs should go to those "most qualified" – persons most likely to perform ably in a given task – and not go to persons for arbitrary or irrelevant reasons, such as circumstances of birth, upbringing, having well-connected relatives or friends, religion, sex, ethnicity, race, caste, or involuntary personal attributes such as disability, age, gender identity, or sexual orientation.

Chances for advancement should be open to everybody interested such that they have "an equal chance to compete within the framework of goals and the structure of rules established." The idea is to remove arbitrariness from the selection process and base it on some "pre-agreed basis of fairness, with the assessment process being related to the type of position", and emphasizing procedural and legal means.

Individuals should succeed or fail based on their own efforts and not extraneous circumstances such as having well-connected parents.

It is opposed to nepotism and plays a role in whether a social structure is seen as legitimate.

The concept is applicable in areas of public life in which benefits are earned and received such as employment and education, although it can apply to many other areas as well.
