Sure, yes, but the minimum wage should probably also still increase more than the average, since it is still the lowest-paid who are getting screwed hardest of all
Comment on Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay
books@lemmy.world 9 months agoWouldn’t a 32 hour work week, keeping the same wage, sort of raise the minimum wage by default? I work full time, work less hours, and keep the same wage?

This is why we need unions.
The autoworkers union the article refers to as an example is seeking a 46% pay rise to coincide with the transition to 32 hours.

Kind of, except you might still need to work multiple jobs because one doesn’t pay enough to keep you alive
