Adjunct professors at Austin Community College will see their work hours cut as a result of Obamacare’s new regulations, KXAN-TX reported Monday.
ACC officials met with many of the college’s 1,200 adjunct employees Monday to tell them that all part-time employees would be capped at 28 hours per week.
The move was made so that ACC would avoid having to offer the adjunct employees’ health insurance. Under the Affordable Care Act, all employees working 30 or more hours per week must receive health insurance from their employer.
