Full-time employment.

Full-time employment is a type of employment that is typically earned by working a minimum number of hours per week. In the United States, under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), large employers (those with fifty or more full-time equivalent employees) are required to offer health insurance to full-time employees. The ACA specifically defines full-time as working an average of thirty hours or more per week, or 130 hours per month. However, employers are otherwise free to set their own requirements for full-time status.
