Download or read book Reducing Workweeks written by Fred Best and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1988-06-24 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International competition and variable economic conditions have brought the threat of layoffs to the doorsteps of workers and managers in all sectors of our economy. One response to this problem is Unemployment Insurance-Supported Work Sharing. This new and promising program reduces the human and economic costs of layoffs by providing partial unemployment benefits to employees who have their workweeks reduced as an alternative to layoffs. Fred Best provides a balanced and thorough assessment of this policy in the United States, Canada, and Europe. Unemployment Insurance-Supported Work Sharing maintains the income and fringe benefits of all workers at near full-time levels, enabling firms to maintain the skills and working relations of their employees and preventing undue hardships among those who would otherwise lose their jobs. Best summarizes the history and effectiveness of these programs in terms of their economic and human impacts on employers, employees, government, and the economy. He presents key insights on how worktime and worker management cooperation can become powerful tools for combating joblessness and increasing economic performance. This definitive account of an important experiment in work hours will be of critical importance to managers, workers, policymakers, economists, and those concerned with employment issues. In the series Labor and Social Change, edited by Paula Rayman and Carmen Sirianni.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The starting point of this analysis was the Baily-Feldstein model according to which both layoffs and average hours worked increase with (1) increases in unemployment benefits and (2) decreases in the degree of experience rating of the unemployment insurance tax. This model has been extended by letting the layoff duration be endogenous and by parameterizing experience rating. The empirical examination of the relationship between layoffs, rehires, hours and unemployment duration as dependent variables and the parameters of the unemployment insurance system as explanatory variables has yielded very encouraging results. The strongest impact is that of NEGTAX, the tax rate which applies to firms with a negative balance in the unemployment insurance fund. A rise in NEGTAX reduces layoffs, rehires, hours and unemployment duration. Increases in NEGTAX tend to reduce strongly both layoffs and unemployment duration. The approximate elasticities of these two relationships are .55 and .21 respectively so that a rise in NEGTAX of 10% (from, say, 3.4 to 3.74) might reduce layoff unemployment by as much as 7%. Increases in NEGTAX would improve the financial viability of the unemployment insurance system since tax inflows would rise and benefit outflows would fall because of the reduced layoff unemployment.

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together
