The push to raise the minimum wage has gotten attention in Ohio and nationwide. But perhaps a lesser-known issue is the number of hours workers get.

On Cincinnati Edition, we discuss the hardship of part-time employment and the push for a federal right to full-time work.
Guests:
- Adelle Waldman, author, Help Wanted
- Matt Bruenig, labor lawyer and founder, People’s Policy Project
- Audrey Treasure, VP and executive director, Greater Cincinnati Regional Chamber Workforce Innovation Center
