According to this article, Federal Reserve economists have said that PPACA has had little or no real impact on the high percentage of part-time workers seen today. They note that PPACA will not change part-time workers' conditions.
From within:
"Before the law was passed, most large employers already faced IRS rules that prevented them from denying available health benefits to full-time workers. These rules gave employers an incentive to create part-time jobs to avoid rising health benefit costs. Moreover, recent research suggests that the ultimate increase in the incidence of part-time work when the ACA provisions are fully implemented is likely to be small, on the order of a 1 to 2 percentage point increase or less."
