4 working days in US

Likewise, different facilities like medical services, more resources, more spaces has to be managed which in turn results in company lose.
Second, according to the reading passage the 4 days working plan will decrease the unemployment rate. Nevertheless, the lecturer refutes this by stating that having more number of worker will be costly as mentioned earlier. In addition, the workers will have to work for over time so as to accomplish the particular task in time. Thus, rather providing the employment service it will add loads to the employees themselves.
Finally, the author believes that the plan will be better for the individual as well. On other hand, the lecturer argues that the individual will be at risk of loosing his/her job since he/she will decrease the quality of their performance. Thus, the plan has disadvantage to an individual as well. In addition, the lecturer thinks losing job will result in decrease in quality of life.
In conclusion, although the reading passage and the lecturer both are about the 4 working days, the lecturer has effectively challenged the main point mentioned in the reading passage by providing logically convincing reasons.
