Integrated WritingIn the United States, employees typically work five days a week for eight hours each day. However, many employees want to work a four-day week and are willing to accept less pay in order to do so. A mandatory policy requiring companies t

The article states that four-day workweek for four-fifths of normal pay option would benefit the economy as well as the individual companies and the employees who decided to take the option and provides three reasons of support. The professor explains this option won't affect the profit, economy, improvement of employees life quality and refutes each of the author's reasons.

First, the reading claims that it will increase the company's profits. The lecture refutes this point by stating that four-day workweek may force to cost a lot more money. If some employees choose this option, the company needs to hire a new employee. Hiring a new employee will cost more to train and provide medical services. Because medical will be same for four-day and five-day workweek employees. It will be required more space which is more costly.

Second, the article posits that four-day workweek will reduce unemployment. However, the professor contends that it will not create more space for the new hire. Company will not want to hire a new employee because of the high cost. They might choose another option to propose overtime for other employees with some incentives. They also may think four-day workweek employee can do same as five-day workweek employee. So, it won't decrease unemployment.

Third, the reading avers that this will beneficial for individual employees. The lecture opposes this point by saying that it may present some risk. It can decrease the ability to work of employees. As a result, they will not able to develop their skills and miss the chance to promote for better options. Four-day workweek employee may not be promoted to administration because this needs five days monitoring and managing other employees.
