The youth part-time employment rate picked up from 2008-2009 onwards, as the Spanish job market suffered the consequences of the financial crisis. In the mid 2010s, more than a fifth of young workers aged 25 to 29 years had temporary jobs, up from less than 12 percent in 2006. By the last quarter of 2023, it had fallen to 16.9 percent. Part-time employment within this age range is mostly involuntary, that is, these workers were not able to find a full-time job although they wished to.
