Unless I've really really misunderstood this editorial, the Ministry of Labor wants to abolish the overtime pay system for all "white collar" employees. It seems also to imply that the way this corner of the government wants to pursue the matter, salaried employees (as opposed to hourly wage earners) who are much more common than back in the US, could be expected to work much longer hours without any sort of legal rights to compensation.
I think the term "white collar" would include John Q Eikaiwa teacher.
What a fucking brilliant idea.
Why do so many people have it lodged between their ears that the road toward technological progress and increased financial security leads away from increased freedom?
