For most companies in the US 30-35 scheduled hours is considered part-time.
Anything less is often called "casual work".
But lately, the definition for many is that full-time workers receive ALL the offered benefits (no matter the work week hours IE 40 vs 36) whereas part-time workers receive only a portion of the full benefits package (IE accumulated sick/vacation time).

@Threepio in the uk to claim state help you cant work more than 16hours.
@Mellowgirl Just to be a little more clear...
The "benefits" I spoke of are those provided by the employing company to the employee(s), either part-time or full-time (IE life insurance, health insurance, dental coverage, long/short term disability and so forth....).
State help (aid) given here, is based on your income and family size (calculated as a % of the federal poverty line), not the number of hours worked.
