The reading passage contends that offering employees the option to work for a four-days work a week for with a 20 percent less than normal salary 80 percent of the normal pay will benefit the whole economy. On the other hand, the lecturer brings up several points that contradict this argument.
First of all, the lecturer questions the validity of the point in the reading passage that it would increase a company's profit by offering to offer employees the option of working a four-day. It is true that the shortened work time helps the workers to increase efficiency. However, if the more workers were newly hired, the more training program, the more space to work and the more computers would be needed. Thus, the reading passage's first point is contradicted. (State the reading point)
Moreover, the lecturer casts doubt on the point made by the reading passage that providing the option of working a four-day work week would reduce the unemployment rates. This is because the company will be reluctant to hire new workers as it is not economical. Also, the company will expect the employers to work as hard as they used to. This would not be helpful to increase the number of jobs. (Make it clear) In addition, this would decrease the satisfaction of their job at the same time. Consequently, the reading passage's second point is invalid.
Last but not least, the lecturer disagrees with the point made in the reading passage that four-day employees' those (employees) who work for four days would increase the quality of lives would increase. It is true that shortened work time would ensure them a private rest time for rest, but it has a risk too. The option of work four-day would harm their advancing careers because the companies tend to promote employees who can work continuously. As a result, with such reasoning, the reading passage's final point is reputed.
