I’m only allowed to schedule people for 29 hours a week - tops. Above minimum pay, but no benefits.
This past year they dropped the Flex Plan for ‘part-time’ employees and reduced my once $1,300.00 Flex plan down to $500.00.
All due to ‘complying’ with Obamacare. It has been a nightmare in so many ways...but we’re still getting the job done - which amazes me every day. (I have an awesome staff who, ‘get it.’)
“Im only allowed to schedule people for 29 hours a week - tops. Above minimum pay, but no benefits.

The local state university used to pay full benefits, including subsidized health insurance, to all employees working 20 hours or more per week. Because of the cost of the Obamacare-mandated benefits, the university “complied” with the law by eliminating benefits for most of the people working 20-29 hours per week. Some people previously working between 20 and 29 hours per week were fired, and a few were given enough hours to get them to 30 hours and keep their benefits. Overall, it’s been a fiasco for the vast majority of the part-timers.
