See page 592.
That's not bad. I'll finish my work in 2-2.5 weeks as I work extra anyway.
NP. You're missing the point. The goal is to reduce or eliminate overtime pay. If they move from weekly to monthly it could lead employers to overload busy workweeks with extra-long shifts and then take advantage of slow periods through under-scheduling, which could effectively eliminate overtime altogether.
A person could work two 50 hour weeks followed by two 30 hour weeks. Its 160 hours, but they would lose 20 hours of overtime pay because under the monthly plan overtime would only come in at more than 160 hours a month. That is different from the current policy that pays overtime after more than 40 hours per week.
It also says they want employers to pay overtime rate for any hours worked on the sabbath.
