Mar 7 “Recently there’s been a major cut in hours. If I get my hours cut, I don’t make as much money. And that’s true for anybody, but I have worked there for 25 years. If I have a job that is a “9 to 5” it should be enough. You shouldn’t have to worry about that sort of thing.”

Mar 7 Private average weekly hours worked flat at 34.1 hrs: lowest since March 2020!
This is an important gauge to monitor as a measure of labor capacity utilization

Mar 9 Americans work the LEAST hours since the aftermath of the Great Financial Crisis:
Average Weekly Hours worked came at 34.1 in February, in line with the lowest level in 15 YEARS.
34.1 hours was also in the middle of the Financial Crisis.
This is not a healthy job market.

Feb 13 New report shows that Labor’s new right to disconnect from work after hours has slashed average unpaid overtime from 5.4 to 3.6 hours per week – a 33% reduction. Peter Dutton has promised to scrap this right – he wants you to work longer for less.
