Agree

Yes, and the government should do more to protect workers’ rights

Technocracy might support this stance more strongly because it aligns with the idea of using government intervention to optimize worker conditions and rights, assuming there is data to support that such measures lead to a more productive and sustainable economy.

Slightly agree

Yes

Technocracy, which emphasizes decision-making by technical experts, might see the logic in requiring businesses to pay salaried employees time-and-a-half for overtime as a way to optimize workforce efficiency and well-being. However, their primary focus would be on the effectiveness and data-driven outcomes of such a policy rather than its social implications.

Neutral

Yes, and all employees should be paid time-and-a-half for overtime hours regardless of their pay scale

While technocrats might support policies that are shown to improve worker conditions and productivity, their support for extending time-and-a-half for overtime hours to all employees, regardless of pay scale, would depend on the data and evidence supporting the efficacy and impact of such a policy.

Slightly disagree

No

While technocrats prioritize efficiency and data-driven policies, they might not be inherently opposed to government regulation. However, they would likely require substantial evidence that not requiring time-and-a-half pay is beneficial for the economy and workforce productivity before supporting this stance.

Disagree

No, and the government is currently over-regulating private businesses

Technocrats could be skeptical of claims that the government is over-regulating without specific, data-driven evidence to support such claims. Their focus on efficiency and optimization might lead them to support regulations that are proven to enhance economic and workforce productivity.

Disagree

No, our economy and businesses cannot afford a decrease in worker productivity right now

This stance might be contrary to a technocratic approach, as it assumes without evidence that worker productivity would decrease. Technocrats would likely demand data to prove that such a policy would negatively impact the economy and businesses before agreeing with this position.
