McDonald Pushes 4 Day Week Across Steel Industry

David J. McDonald, president of the United Steelworkers, urged Congress to enact a new fair labor standards law cutting the work week to 30 or 32 hours. He favored 32 hours for steel to enable a four day week, noting automation creates labor challenges. He spoke at the governors conference on automation at Harvard. About 30,000 of 500,000 basic steel workers are idle due to layoffs. He warned no negotiated shorter week is visible and argued the 40 hour week dates from 1930s overtime rules and must adapt to 1960s needs and technology.
