Arguments about more work hours

155

Korinna Schumann is the minister for work. She wants a new law. Part time workers shall get more hours. That means: You get the right to work more. This is true if the company says yes.

The workers chamber likes the plan. They say: People get more safety. You have more money for your life. The green party also likes the plan. They asked for this many years ago.

Business owners dislike the plan. The business chamber says: This forces the firms. It does not help with a lack of experts. The industry group is also against it. They think: People will not work full time more.

The FPÖ party also attacks the plan. They say: Taxes are too high. More work does not pay off for many people. Another topic makes trouble too. This is the insurance for people without jobs. Fees shall go up to 2.95 percent. The FPÖ calls this a punishment for hard workers.
