Unskilled workers were immeditely dropped to 19 hrs per wk and had to find a second job.

Shame on the owners of this store who treat their workers with little respect.Others of us in the retail industry have also been hit with the 29 hr obamacare issue.After working for over 12 yrs as full-time I am no longer allowed to work full time,only part because if my employer has over 50 Full-time workers under the new law they would have to give healthcare.So now we have no hrs ,no sick leave,no vacations and still need another job to make up for lost hours and will get no benefits.This is no way to treat people who work hard and have so for many many years.So yes people who care -should try to shop at establishments that treat their workers fairly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
