Multiple Choice

What is considered full time?

Full-time status is defined by a weekly hour threshold. In Rhode Island workers’ compensation contexts, someone who works more than 20 hours per week is considered full-time for purposes like benefits eligibility and wage-earning capacity decisions. This threshold separates full-time from part-time workers, so exactly 20 hours isn’t counted as full-time, and fewer than 20 hours isn’t either. The choice of “any number of hours” would ignore this established cut-off used to classify employment status.
