working four days a week or not
The reading and the lecture are both about working four days week. The reading passage explains three different options of working just four hours a week and the lecture contradicts these options.
First, the reading states that employees in The United States prefer working four days a week because they will benefit from the policy. On the other hand, the lecture refutes the idea when the professor mentions that working four days a week will force the company to spend more money. Adding more employees the company will have to pay medical insurance and more training and cost will be the same if work four days or five employees. Also, they have to increase more space and computers and that will cut into the company's profit.
Secondly, the reading states that if the employees work fewer days the unemployment will be reduced because the workload will be distributed between the new workers that the company hired. On the other side, the lecturer mentions that hiring new employees will be costly and not many jobs will be available. The company will realize that employees that work four days could do the same as an employee that works five days.
Finally, the reading states that reducing the hours to four days a week would be a benefit for employees and their families because they will have the possibility to spend time with their families. The professor disagrees, when he says that more free time, will cut the quality of life and decrease the job stability. Employees that work four days a week are likely to lose their jobs. Also, companies prefer five days working because they are more qualified to manage the company.
