TPO 1
The main topic of both reading and the lecture is the policy of reducing working hours. According to the reading, four-day work is so beneficial for both companies and employees, however, the lecturer finds this idea questionable and debatable and provides three main reasons to refute them all.
Firstly, in the reading the author states that companies can spend less money than their normal payments. Conversely, the lecturer refutes this idea, citing that not only do the companies have to spend more money, but also they would need more space and facilities like computers for more employees they have to hire. By reducing work days, the managers should hire more people who should be trained and given insurance for medical cares. The money spent on medical cares is the same for workers of five-day job.
Secondly, according to the passage, the author claims that by decreasing the work time, it is more likely to reduce work load, errors and unemployment. On the other hand, the lecturer rejects this notion, mentioning that in such condition, the managers expect their employees to finish their jobs soon, so the job would be uncomfortable and there would not be any job vacancies available.
Finally, the reading passage argues that employees would have more free time and could increase their life quality. However, the lecturer denies this by stating that employees are more likely to reduce their life quality because the stability of their jobs reduces. Also, they are prone to miss the job promotion because managers prefer to choose more experienced people who have worked five days a week and have more abilities for supervision and issue covering.
