In 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 to offer their employees the option of working a four-day workweek for four-fifths (80 percent) of their normal pay would benefit the economy as a whole as well as the individual companies and the employees who decided to take the option.
The shortened workweek would increase company profits because employees would feel more rested and alert, and as a result, they would make fewer costly errors in their work. Hiring more staff to ensure that the same amount of work would be accomplished would not result in additional payroll costs because four-day employees would only be paid 80 percent of the normal rate. In the end, companies would have fewer overworked and error-prone employees for the same money, which would increase company profits.
For the country as a whole, one of the primary benefits of offering this option to employees is that it would reduce unemployment rates. If many full-time employees started working fewer hours, some of their workload would have to be shifted to others. Thus, for every four employees who went on an 80 percent week, a new employee could be hired at the 80 percent rate.
Finally, the option of a four-day workweek would be better for individual employees. Employees who could afford a lower salary in exchange for more free time could improve the quality of their lives by spending the extra time with their families, pursuing private interests, or enjoying leisure
The reading states that four days workweek and four-fifths of their normal pay would benefit the economy as a whole and the individual company, also the employees and provides three reasons of support.
the lecturer refutes this claim made by the author. He explains that this plane has not effective for the company, also not for employees and refutes each of the author's claims.
Firstly, The article states that the shortened workweek would increase the company profits because employees would feel more rested and alert. the article states that this option also helps the company to hire new employees
but not needed extra money because four-days employees would only be paid 80 percent of the normal rate. this specific argument is challenged by the lecturer.
He says that this option would be expended more money because adding to a new worker, the company needed to arrange new training
and medical methods and to ensure these benefits, the profit actually cut down and not to increase.
Secondly, the article posits that This option offering to reduce the unemployment rates.
The article said that new employees could be hired at the 80 percent rate since every four
employees who want on an 80 percent week. The lecturer, however, rebuts this claim that hiring new workers means to expend more money. As a result, the company would like to cover up their
expenses and then offer to the work overtime. For these reasons no new opportunity actually produces. Additionally, the lecturer says that the company tries to output the same amount of product that actually occurs from five days workers that means companies production has made constantly and does not needed extra work and also not produce any new position.
Finally, the author argues that this option is better for individual employees because they spend their extra time with their families and
enjoying leisure activities also pursuing private interests. In contrast, the lecturer position is that this option has some risk because it would happen some job fire because employee loses their job stability could lose their job.
The lecturer also notes that the company might be a promotion from the manager level and also those people are more dedicated and like to work five days a weekend.
Thus, this option bringing individual loses rather than any benefits. so, this option is highly impractical and unconvincing.
