  Kui nõuda töötajatelt pidevalt ületunnitöö tegemist ja kui kehtestada pikad töönädalad, siis toob see kaasa töökohtade kadumise. To require workers to systematically work overtime and put in long working weeks is to destroy jobs.
  Nimetatud keskmise tööaja pikendamine on samaväärne sellega, kui tööandjatele antaks luba jätta tulevikus ületunnitöö tasustamata. Increasing this average is tantamount to giving employers permission not to pay for overtime in future.
