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 lecture casts doubt on all three points made in the passage about the benefits of adopting a workweek of four days.
To begin with, the lecture rebuts the claim made by the reading that a workweek of four days would be beneficial for the company, owing to the reduction in the stress of employees, stating that they would make less errors. As a result, they company would spend less on correcting expensive mistakes and also employ more hands, thereby, increasing profits. However, the lecturer disagrees with this, saying that the company would be running at a loss because they would be spending excess money on more medical benefits, trainings, computers, and larger office space as well. Moreover, apart from more expenditure, the employment of more people is not very promising because the incentives are the same for both four days and five days workers.
Furthermore, the lecture refutes the point that adopting a shorter workweek would be beneficial to the economy as there would be the employment of more hands, as stated in the reading. In contrast, the lecturer says that the company would look for ways to prevent combat the shorter working hours, thus, they may kind of raise the expectations of employees, or make the them work over.
Finally, the lecture does not agree that the employees would gain from a shorter workweek in that they have more time to spend with family, or pursue personal interest, at least. Nevertheless, the lecturer argues that first, the employees may fall ill from the enormous workload. Moreover, they may be the first to be retrenched during a recession, and will be passed over for promotions. So, to a great extent, their career is harmed.
To sum up, the lecture effectively challenges all the points made in the reading.
