Yes but the UK has the NHS, it's not possible in the US where employees have to healthcare benefits by federal mandate.
You can't have an employee on the payroll costing $1,500 a month in benefits who can choose to work 0 hours in a month.
- larkost 2y agoI think you are missing a part of the Federal Healthcare Insurance Mandate (part of the ACA): the mandate is on the worker, not the employer. Many employers have no insurance benefits for their employers. And then the other part of it: the penalty for not having healthcare insurance was deducted to $0 at the end of 2018. So there is currently no penalty at all (other than the massive ones if you get sick) to not carrying insurance.
- bpodgursky 2y agoThis is simply not true. Any employer with 50 employees has a mandate to provide healthcare for employees.
