TOEFL integrated writing: work a four-day week.
The reading and the lecture are both about shortened workweek. However, from their contexts, it can be stated that the lecture brings into question the points in the reading passage. The author of the text claims that mandatory police to stablish the option of a four-day workweek would be beneficial to the companies and employees. The lecturer completely refutes the arguments in the article, hence, arguing that the explanations to support this idea are faulty.
Firstly, it is stated by the lecturer that by adopting the shortened workweek the company will be forced to spend more money since the company should hire more employees to complete to job. This will generate an increase in general company costs like those spent on training and medical insurance. Furthermore, more computers and office spaces will be required, leading to an extra enhancement in costs. This directly contradicts the reading passage that denotes that the shortened workweek will certainly reduce the costs, including cost errors, and also will increase the profit.
Secondly, the lecturer safely assumes that a terrible thing may happen that is that the company could ask or expect the employees to do the same amount of job in only four days. This will turn the job very unpleasant, which could lead to an increase in unemployment. This idea strongly contrasts with the article that mentions that the reduced workweek would diminish the unemployment rates.
Finally, the lecturer believes that the extra time given by this new workweek could impair job stability and diminish the chances that a four-day employee has to get a promotion or which is worst it could increase their chances of losing their jobs. The text, on the other hand, states that this free time may improve employees’ quality of life by them being able to have more leisure and rest time with family.
