Part-time lecturers represent 57.6% of all the lecturers in Japanese private universities, and a wide gap in working conditions between full-time and part-time lecturers exists. Part-time lecturers, in many cases, are used as cheap labour regardless of their contribution. This paper examines which type of universities depends on part-time lecturers by multi-regression analysis. The results show that the employment of part-time lecturers is not necessarily inevitable by financial reason and there is room to improve the working conditions of such lecturers from the viewpoint of USR (University Social Responsibility).
