TPO-01 - Integrated Writing Task 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 inorder to do so. A mandatory policy requiri
The reading and lecture are both about the shortening of workweek of the employess from five days to four days. The author of the reading feels that there are three important benefits of this change for companies, for societies as a whole and for the individual employees also. However, the lecturer challanges the claims made by author. He is of the opinion that these explanations are not true for several reasons.
To begin with, the author argues that this amendment increases the company profits. The article mentions that if companies shorten the workweek, then employees fell rested and as a result they become less error-prone worker in their job. Moreover he adds that company can hire more worker with same money and do more jobs than before and this increases the profits. This specific argument is challenged by lecturer. He says that even if companies hire more worker, it will be more costly for the companies because the more new worker you hire, the more spending on the traning for these workers is. Furthermore, he claims that hiring new workers also means allocating extra office spaces and extra computer for the new workers and these are again important costs for the company.
Secondly, the writer suggest that this change is benefical for the society as a whole. In the article it is said that if the workload decreases, then this shortened workload would have to be shifted to other workers and this results in less unemployment. The lecturer,however,rebuts this by mentioning that hiring new worker may be more costly for companies rather than more profitably and also may have no effect on the unemployment. He elaborates on this by bringing up the point that companies may expect same amount of job from workers at the duration of shortened days and this will be more tiring for employess but it won’t effect the unemployment rate.
Finally, the author posits that it is also better for individual employees. In the article it is stated that after this regulation employess can find more time to spend this time with their families and also to spend for pursuing their private interests. In contrast, the lecturer’s position is that this change may be risky. He notes that if the workers have less time with their job then it is hard to develop their career for the employees. He also states that under this environment, they may lose the opportunity to promote in the management positions because employers may choose the employees for a managerial position who prefer to working five days to working four days.
