In at least one western European country part-time has the reputation of being about 2h less work than full-time, but 60% of the pay. Partly because they always demand you come in 4 days out of 5, sometimes all 5, and so traffic time is the same. Knowing that a LOT of people spend 1h+ each way, this means a part-time job effectively shortens your workday (time away from home) from 10h to 8h. So you can extrapolate from that exactly how employers use part-time.
