This "PSR" is just another name for lean staffing, which is one of the biggest cancers on our society right now. Aggressively cutting staffing levels to the bare minimum required to operate leads very directly to worse service, more disruptions, and more sick and injured workers. It leads less directly to lower wages, via higher unemployment, a catastrophic loss of institutional memory, as there's rarely anyone in your position when you're hired—you're just expected to figure it all out once you get there, rather than have anyone who can train you. Lean staffing is devastating the middle and working class, and it needs to die a thousand deaths.
