a. underemployment only occurs in advanced countries. b. people with college degrees sometimes take a part-time job. c. part-time staffs seems benefit from firms less. d. companies need full-time staffs indeed. 5. some companies maintain a full staff. a. to compete with others in the future b. to make preparations for seasonal workc. to get the skilled workers paid d. to obey labor laws and union pressures【参考答案】15、c
