ITPEC FE Morning April 2020 — Question 76 of 80
Work Sharing — an initiative to preserve jobs by reducing hours per employee.
Work sharing is a strategy where an organization shortens work hours per employee and redistributes work assignments instead of laying off staff. For example, rather than firing 10% of the workforce, all employees work 10% fewer hours.
Why not others:
- (a) Describes work-life balance — flexible working styles for harmony between work and personal life.
- (b) Describes a cafeteria plan — employees pick welfare/benefit services from a menu within a set budget.
- (c) Describes a free agent system or job posting system — employees choose their workplace or duty.
Key rule: Work sharing = cut hours across the board to save jobs, not cut people.
