calls for[听力原文] Paid work is a stiff aspect of daily life and an unyielding (顽固的) necessity for people who pay their own bills. But a new report financed by the Sloan Foundation calls for an ambitious national campaign to promote flexible work arrangements. While the report is chock full of good ideas, it doesn t directly acknowledge that what some workers call flexibility , others might call vulnerability (易受影响) to pay cuts . Flexible work arrangements range from part-time and part-year work to telecommuting and individually negotiated schedules. Many highly educated women and men workers put a premium on flexibility to balance work and family obligations Happily, their preferences are gradually exerting an influence. But the new openness to flexible work arrangements is converging with growing trend of cutting employee work hours in order to reduce costs. The Sloan Foundation report insists that such arrangements should be voluntary, requested by employees rather than imposed by employers. This seems unrealistic. Flexibility, almost by definition, goes both ways. A recent article in this paper points out that many workers are making do with less: The number of people working fewer than 35 hours a week because of slack business conditions has more than doubled in 12 months. Only 17 states allow workers to apply for unemployment benefits to partially compensate for involuntary short time, and few workers are even aware that such programs exist. It would be nice if all those professionals and managers who like the concept of short work would help relieve other workers from its negative impact when imposed top down.
