　　(·海淀第二学期期末，C)

　　Job sharing refers to the situation in which two people divide the responsibility of one full­time job. The two people willingly act as part­time workers, enough hours between them to fulfill the duties of a full­time worker. If they each work half the job, for example, they each receive 50 percent of the job's wages，its holidays and its other benefits.

　　Job sharing differs from conventional(常规的) part­time work in that it occurs mainly in the more highly skilled and professional areas, which require higher levels of responsibility and employee commitment.

　　Job sharing should not be confused with the term work sharing，which refers to increasing the number of jobs by reducing the number of hours of each existing job, thus offering more positions to the growing number of unemployed people. Job sharing, by contrast, is not designed to address unemployment problems; its focus, rather, is to provide well­paid work for skilled workers and professionals who want more free time for other activities.
