[Gass3268]

LA Times says that the data shows that this idea that Obamacare is resulting in more part-times works is a myth.

Whether or not Obamacare is resulting in a net-increase in part-time work isn't something I alleged (and it's hard to prove in an economy as fluid as the U.S.'s right now), but it's undisputed that there are employers cutting hours because of Obamacare.

Actually it is disputed, in that article by the LA Times and the article from the Wall Street Journal. Employers cutting hours because of Obamacare is a right wing talking point myth because we now have facts and data instead of just random anecdotes dug up by the likes of Sean Hannity.

How many employers are cutting hours because of climate change? Quite a few, I would think.

My employer cut our hours for that reason.  It's not just some random anecdote.

Good thing the data shows that is being offset by more employers that are doing the opposite.

Good unless you're one of the people who went from 36 hours a week to 28.  **Raises hand**

You work for one of the 5% of large employers that doesn't provide health insurance?  And instead of providing it,  your employer is just going to cut everyone's hours? I'm sorry for you, but your employer sounds like a dick.

More importantly,  ytf is your employer cutting hours now to comply with a rule that doesn't go into effect for more than 14 months?  Sounds like your employer is cutting hours for his own profit and just blaming it on Obamacare.

Yeah, thiinking about it more it sounds like an excuse.

Fear of what'll come in a year might conceivably be another additional reason beyond the opposite obvious (little work at current due to failures of management) that you'd then highlight. These things happen. There's always additional reasons beyond your own fault which you see more clearly.

How can you say it is "undisputed"?  I have heard this disputed endlessly.

But overall hours worked haven't decreased.

I mean... you can dispute it, but I've given you an objective first-hand example.  If someone's going to dispute that, they're ignoring facts.

Inks, we all understand that your employer is claiming that he's cutting hours because of Obamacare.  But you're the one who's ignoring the fact that the employer mandate doesn't go into effect until 2015, and Obamacare cannot be blamed for your hours being cut in 2013.

[Badger]

Honestly Inks, I think your employer is BSing you--or quite possibly themselves. Some businesspersons act on incorrect perceptions of market conditions, including misunderstanding legislation. It's entirely possible even large employers are misreading the law and responding (in)appropriately.

Or, I could be just hypothesizing out my backside......

Again, why is he cutting your hours now because of a law that won't even go into effect for 14 more months? You should really ask him.

And in any case, the employer mandate should have a relatively small impact because most employers were already providing healthcare, even if not required to by law.
