If? It's a certainty. For starters, the only reason HR departments exist is to try to comply with all the regulations. HR departments are expensive. For seconds, all the "employer contributions" to payroll taxes. Then there are all the wage laws, and mandatory this, and mandated that.
All increase costs of employing people, which comes out of the employees' pockets one way or another.
Profits do not drive employment. What drives employment is the employee provides more value than they cost to hire.
- coliveira 1y agoAs I said above, everyone is subjected to the same work regulations, so it becomes a moot point. It is a form of tax, so that is not an issue that affects a single employer. And it doesn't come from "employer pockets" any more than the cost of raw materials. Every business owner treats the cost of raw materials with all taxes as a given, but then when it comes to workers they whine as if it was the end of the world. It only shows they're whining and frankly annoying people.

Yes, it does, because what the employer cares about is the cost of having the employee vs the value that the employee delivers. Cost of raw materials is not relevant. > they whine I recommend you start a business and test your theories!
