US employers increasingly rely on disposable part-time workers — and taxpayers foot the bill

US employers are increasingly replacing full-time positions with part-time work, with the number of part-time workers rising by 500,000 after the Affordable Care Act was implemented. Companies avoid paying benefits by using this model, shifting costs onto the public. Analysts warn that the growing reliance on so-called "disposable" workers carries serious social and financial consequences.
