Flexible working hours(해커스에 나오는 통합형 주제임다) |
This reading passage argues that flexible working hours have many benefits over the fixed one. On the other hand, the lecture asserts the opposite based on hands-on experiences.
First, although the reading passage shows that employers can hire more compotent and qualified workers because the flexible hours can give many advangages to the wokers, the lecturers asserts that in reality, many companies lost much money because the company with flexible hours can not coordinate with other counterparts and even it is difficult for them to schedule a meeting.
Second, flexible hours can give workers chances to work when they want and this will improve the workers productivity. However, the lecture is againt the reading passage's point. He tries to make sure that the flexible hours just make the workers feel isolated and have no sense of group or team spirit. Because the different working hours means rarer chances to meet each other in a group.
Finally,apparently, the flexible hours can make the workers spend more time with their families. However, the lecturer argues that in reality, it is far from the truth. For example, in a family, if a spouse goes to work early, and the other goes to work afternoon and work late, this means they do not meet frequently, thus the quality time they have to spend will decrease.
