Why it is important?
Whether or not, today we are in a need to revise labor laws. In job crisis, Shouldn't we limit max number of hours a person can work, about 40 per week? I believe that will force employers to hire more people, prevent possible overtimes, healthy society and economy. Some hazards in today's job market involves outsourcing (huge impact), crazy research of intensely creating conflicts/pressurized environment for further studies, more temporary than permanent jobs, and workaround labor protection policies.
Who gets affected?
Everybody, whether high salaried or low salaried, no one will able to do more than one job and max 8 hours a day. It's good for health, and from the economic point of view.
