The reading and the lecture are discussing a suggested plan of offering a four-day work for 80% of the salary instead of five days with full salary. The reading presents many advantages for the new suggested policy, however the lecturer casts doubts on all these claims.
First, the reading mentions that this new policy will increase the possible profits of the companies because they will pay the same amount of money with larger numbers of employees, on the other hand, the lecturer refutes this claim by stating that the new employees may cause the company to pay more money. He elaborates as follows. The new workers will certainly need more training, more office space and medical insurance. As a result companies might find that they have to pay more money than they expected which will lead to losing money instead of gaining profits.
Second, The reading claims that the new policy will reduce the employment and will reflect positively on both the individuals and the companies. The lecturer rebuts this by explaining that that it could not lead to any new jobs since some companies may ask the recent employees to work paid overtime rather than hiring new employees. Moreover, the companies can raise their expectations and ask their works to do the same work that is done as full-time employees which will impose a new burden on the those employees. Additionally, the workers who will participate in this policy are liable than others to get fired during any economical crisis. Another possible effect is that those workers will not work on developing their skills and likely to be less efficient. As a result of these factors, the standard of the employees'life will decrease, contrary to what the reading claims.
