Experiments with a shorter workweek have shown that shown that working fewer hours improves worker well-being and productivity. But we can’t expect employers to implement this transformative change of their own volition.

    If argue for less, but either way we should be compensated for every minute of our lives disrupted by it, not just production time.

    Pay should start as soon as you do the first thing that you wouldn’t do if you weren’t going to work.

    As in getting lunch together, putting on a uniform, diving (+ gas cost and maintenance stipend), all time on premises and working, obviously, up to washing uniforms when you get home.

    All that and no difference in benefits (aka no “part time”/“full time” distinction past a low minimum, say 20), and any time above minimum is completely voluntary, with excessive hours highly discouraged.
