A Right To Full-Time Scheduling - PopularResistance.Org Lawmakers constantly discuss increasing the minimum wage and also float proposals like mandatory paid time off to combat other aspects of overwork. But there is a third problem that gets relatively little attention, which is the problem of involuntary underwork. Many employers — especially in the retail and food service sector — create large pools of part-time workers and then schedule those workers erratically based on real-time estimates of labor need. Some workers like to work part-time because it fits well with the rest of their life, but millions of others do so involuntarily and suffer as a result. https://popularresistance.org/a-right-to-full-time-scheduling/
