The Park Time Workers Regulations are provided to ensure that Britain's part-timers are not treated less favourably than comparable full-timers in their terms and conditions, unless it is objectively justified.  This means part-timers are entitled, for example, to:

• The same hourly rate of pay
• The same access to company pension schemes
• The same entitlements to annual leave and maternity/parental leave on a pro rata basis
• The same entitlement to contractual sick pay
• No less favourable treatment in access to training
