California might pass law to reduce work hours to 32

For companies with over 500 employees

https://www.foxla.com/news/shorter-w...alifornia-bill

That'd be wild. Can't see companies not want to move out of the state if this law was passed

Like any other bill that comes out of the CA legislature, it sounds good at first, but there's always an underlying motive that profits the elite at the expense of the plebs....

This bill will "try" to keep that from happening, but if that's the case, why would the company(ies) bother staying there to pay high health insurance for less hours worked?

As w/ all things Democrats touch or plan, nothing about how this affects the state in the future has been taken into account.

So no more benefits and a smaller paycheck.

Solid, solid plan to help the people.

Band aid solution for an economy where workers are accustomed to being paid for the hours they attend and not the results they produce.

The bill says the salary/compensation must remain the same, for working less time.

This will kill smaller businesses that make people work 40 hours a week and can't afford to up employee compensation.

I agree with this.

Many Euro nations have 4 day work weeks with great results.

Most of the time office cels are just talking, day dreaming, texting etc. anyways. A condensed workweek sounds good.

LOL at kill smaller businesses

Those employees who work for smaller businesses aren't working any more during their 40 hours than those employed by large corporations. The 40 hour work week is a scam. Just as much can and will be produced in 32 hours if companies maintain the same performance expectation each week. Employees easily piss away 50% of the week doing nothing. We could trim to 20 hours a week and most companies, smaller included, will be fine.

All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Wouldn’t exactly call a company of 500 employees a small business…..

It's like they want to chase everyone out of California. I wonder what their endgame is.
