More Obamacare Pay Cuts
‘Obamacare Will Dig Into The Pocketbooks Of Part-Time Workers’ Due To Obamacare ‘Workers Are Getting Their Hours Cut’
‘Obamacare Forces Trigs To Limit Workers’ Hours.’(“Obamacare Forces Trig's To Limit Workers' Hours,” WJFW 12, 7/24/13)
“The University of Alabama has capped student work hours at 20 per week during the school year as a result of the Affordable Care Act, according to an email sent to graduate students on July 9. Graduate School Dean Dave Francko wrote that the act ‘will directly impact student employment here at UA — in particular, the definition of ‘employee’ as it relates to graduate student employees and assistants. In particular, the act places new limits on the number of hours which graduate students are allowed to work’ without their being considered UA employees entitled to health benefits.” (“Health Care Reform Prompts Cap On Hours Students Can Work,” Huntsville Times, 7/28/13)
“‘UA’s graduate school stood out to me as this place of opportunity and community, and I fear that is going away with this new policy,’ [20-hour assistantship Barry] Grass said.”< span style="font-size: 10pt;">(“Health Care Reform Prompts Cap On Hours Students Can Work,” Huntsville Times, 7/28/13)
“Local companies adjust to costs of Affordable Care Act … Santa Fe College has placed a cap on the hours part-time employees can work and the credit hours adjunct faculty can teach to limit its costs. … the board of trustees approved a budget at its June 18 meeting that includes a cap of 27.5 hours on part-time employees and a maximum of teaching 12 credit hours per term for adjunct faculty for the fiscal year that started July 1.” (“Local Companies Adjust To Costs Of Affordable Care Act,” The Gainesville Sun [Fl], 7/27/13) “… as White Castle looks into the future after the new law takes effect, Richardson says the company is considering hiring only part-time workers.”(“Full-Time Vs. Part-Time Workers: Restaurants Weigh Obamacare,” NPR, 7/24/3)
“The reason is simply cost,he says. ‘If we were to keep our health insurance program exactly like it is with no changes, every forecast we've looked at has indicated our costs will go up 24 percent,’ … So, he says, adding health insurance as a benefit for all employees over 30 hours, as the health care law requires, isn't feasible.” (“Full-Time Vs. Part-Time Workers: Restaurants Weigh Obamacare,” NPR, 7/24/3)
