That assumes that all the worker cares about is money. However, not having a job has psychological consequences, and the chances for being able to switch to another job are reduced dramatically the longer one is unemployed. Humans are more concerned about their outlook than their current condition, and the outlook for the unemployed worker is worse than for the employed one.
- aninhumer 10y agoIf the person knows they will reliably receive the same salary as when they were working, their outlook is at least as good as it was before. And should they wish to improve it, they have plenty of time to explore ways to do so. And certainly people want to feel valued, but there are far better ways to achieve this than doing pointless repetitive work, and not all of them require employment.
