    • Group Topic: As a management strategy, is it better to reduce workers' hours or to make layoffs? (645 days ago)

      Comment: I disagree; I would lay off workers with less seniority. When you reduce the hours of veteran’s workers, it is possible they will become hostility. Employee’s work at the same company or firm for years to build up seniority, so they should be protected from layoffs.
      First in, last out, if a person is struggling to pay their bills, a reduced work week can cause more hardships for them.
      Being a manager, I would protect my season employee’s from being laid off. This will keep them motivated, and I will have their trust. This will prove it pays off when you are loyal to a firm or company over the years. My first priority would be those workers with seniority.
