Using Wave 1 of the 2014 SIPP Panel, this paper aims to understand how the industrial and occupational context of parents’ employment is associated with parents’ likelihood of working nonstandard schedules. More specifically, we ask: How many mothers and fathers work a nonstandard schedule?  In which industries and occupations are parents most likely to be working a nonstandard schedule?  What organizational and work factors (e.g. size of organization, sex-segregation of occupation, union status) are associated with nonstandard schedules among parents?  We find that nonstandard schedules are common among both mothers and fathers, though mothers in nonstandard schedules are more likely to be working part time.  Parents in service industries and occupations are more likely to be working nonstandard schedules.  We found that larger firm size is associated with nonstandard schedules for mothers, but not for fathers.  Occupational gender composition was not associated with nonstandard schedules for mothers or fathers.  This research highlights the challenges parents face in meeting the demands of work and family life in the context of labor market forces and the constraints presented by particular industries and occupations.
