NOTE: Contingent status on the second job is not available for a small share of multiple jobholders; thus, the number of contingent and not contingent second jobs will not sum to total. Estimates for the race groups (White, Black or African American, and Asian) do not sum to total because data are not presented for all races. People whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race. Detail for other characteristics may not sum to total due to rounding.
