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

Both the reading and the lecture discuss the four-day workweek policy. While the reading states that this new policy would benefit the companies and the employees, the lecture cast doubts this idea by saying that this new policy would not increase the economy of the companies and would not improve employees way of life.

First of all, the reading claims that the four-day workweek policy would increase the profits of the companies since employees will commit fewer errors regarding that they will have more time to rest during the week. The professor counters this idea by saying that having four-day workers will affect the economy of the companies because they should invest more money in training, medical benefits, office space and computers.

Secondly, the reading passage posits that hiring more people with four-day workweek will not cost extra money due to the fact that they will be paid only eighty percent of the total salary. Moreover, the reading adds that the country will benefit because of the decrease of unemployment. The professor opposes to that idea by saying that having more employees will increase companies costs. Furthermore, The companies could ask employees who work four day to work the same as if they were a five days employee since they likely refuse to add one more employee making the work of the employee more stressful.

Finally, The reading passage says that employees that work 4 days per week will have more free time to spend with their beloved ones.However, the professor explains that this new policy will affect job stability since the companies will prefer to give better oportunities to employees who work five days; as a result, the four day employees will not have the chance to get a promotion or even to get an administrative position.
