In the literature of the effects of nonstandard work experience on employed workers' future career development, hypothesis of bridge or stepping stone views nonstandard work experience as a bridge or a stepping stone to lead employed workers to acquire standard jobs. On the other hand, the entrapment hypothesis views nonstandard work experience as a trap to hinder workers in nonstandard jobs or lead to unemployment. Another argument, the scar effect, resembles the entrapment hypothesis. The scar effect argues that past employment status operates as a scar which impedes workers to acquire career advancement or labor outcomes. This study used previous employment status and past work experience to measure employed work experience. We used work history data from 2017 Taiwan Social Change Survey to examine whether there is gender difference in the bridge or entrapment hypothesis of nonstandard work experience and in the effect of family status on next employment status of Taiwanese employed workers. More Taiwanese female workers entering nonstandard jobs than male workers after 2000. Findings supported the entrapment hypothesis and the scar effect. The effects of previous nonstandard employment status and past nonstandard work experience affected female workers by increasing their probabilities to get next nonstandard jobs. |
