Evil HR Lady: Want to Increase Jobs? Eliminate These Laws

Why am I evil? Well, I'm not, but that's the perception of all of us in HR. Need to fire someone? Come to HR. Need to explain to someone why, even after working their rear end off all year, that their annual increase is 2.7%? Come to HR. Need to come up with new mountains of paperwork? Come to HR. So, come join me on the Evil Side. Oh, and send me your HR questions. Switzerland's unemployment rate is currently 2.8%, a figure that the US can only dream of. In Switzerland there are serious obstacles to firing someone. In Switzerland you can't fire someone without cause, sickness is not considered a reasonable cause and any employee fired can take their case to a court for a judge to decide if it was fair or not. Added to that Switzerland has minimum vacation time of 4 weeks, maximum working hours of 45 hours/week and statutory maternity leave. And DM Andy, I happen to live in Switzerland. Ask a Manager is right--the culture is SIGNIFICANTLY different. For instance, it's against the rules in our apartment building to do laundry after 10:00 p.m. or before 7:00 a.m. It's illegal in many towns to use the town parks between 12:00 and 2:00 p.m. Many apartment buildings have rules against flushing your toilet after 10:00. Tell me, why does Norway have a higher rate of entrepreneurship than the United States given their stricter laws? And don't give me the "it's a different culture" or "they're smaller", because I can just as easily point to individual states that have higher rates of employment "in spite of" increased protections. I also pointed out Australia and Germany.

And for an actual solution we either need to start a world war or reinvest in a modern Works Progress Administration. There is plenty that needs to be done from infrastructure maintenance to high speed rail and internet infrastructure that needs to be done. Allow the states to borrow from the Fed at their lower rate to tide them over like they do for the banks. Again there might be a cultural mismatch, the right to work states tend to be more Southern than the others. But it's hard to see from the raw data any pattern that proves your view. The state with the lowest unemployment (North Dakota, 3.2%) is a right to work state but so is the state with the highest unemployment (Nevada 12.4%). Montana (union, 7.5%) has a lower unemployment rate to Idaho (right to work, 9.4%), New Mexico (union, 6.8%) has a lower unemployment rate than Texas (right to work, 8.2%), Kentucky (union, 9.6%) has a lower unemployment rate than Tennessee (right to work, 9.8%). If I'm concerned that I may lose my job in the next 6 months, I'm probably going to put aside money into a savings account instead of using that money to go on a vacation. While it's good for me to have a savings account, if I went on vacation, my money would help pay the salaries of the hotel workers, waitresses, and any tourist attractions I may visit.
