Archived Is Target setting a cap on the hours of part-timers?

[tysteel]

I was just wondering if Target is going to set a cap on the maximum number of hours that a part-timer can receive?

I read the following topic at a home depot employee forum at http://s1.zetaboards.com/TheOrangeBloodBank/topic/5048793/4/#new and it would appear that the new policy is to limit all part-timers to only 20 hours a week maximum. Is Target already doing the same thing to avoid paying benefits under obamacare?

Spot has done that for years. But, this year is the worse for tm's & full timers too.

I hope not. My other job already does that! (Then again, that's to be expected as it's a government job.)
