We keep hearing about the countless unintended consequences of Obamacare.
With employers keeping their payrolls below 50 and cutting current employee hours back to less than 30 hr per week, to avoid the federal penalties, what if current employers adopted this policy?
We've heard of job sharing, where two people work half a day (or some combination) doing the same job. What would prevent employers with full time employees from doing this? Even if an employee gets overtime frequently, why couldn't an employer just use two people, keep their hours under 30 and he still wouldn't be subject to overtime pay or liable for benefits?
