Full Employment - 30 hours?

I took an online survey today. One of the questions asked my employment status. The selection which caught my interest was:

Full Employment: 30 hours or more per week

I'm wondering when 30 hours per week became fully employed? Is this a sign of the times? It used to be that you couldn't get benefits if you didn't work at least 32 hours per week. Of course, with the cost of healthcare rising, I suppose you can't get benefits at some employers even if you work 80 hours per week.
