minus-squareLandless2029@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up18·edit-21 年前I recall one of the ways to enforce a 4 day workweek was to enforce OT starting at 32 hours. You could keep working 40+ hrs a week but it would hit the owners wallets. Combine that with raising minimum wage and you’re getting closer to UBI. Neither one would help me I think being salary and around medium working class.

minus-squareCalipherJones@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 年前That’ll just make employers hire more employees with less hours.
minus-squareLandless2029@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 年前The offset is ypu need to pay for overhead like benefits/HR/payroll/licenses/training for more employees. So there’s a breakeven somewhere in there. If anything it’s more jobs.

That’s my point…
