Yet another company cutting hours so they don't fall into the Obamacare free healthcare, they are joining a long list of companies that all ready have cut hours and I am afraid there will be many more.



SeaWorld (http://seaworldparks.com/en/seaworld-orlando), an Orlando theme park famous for its killer whale shows, confirmed Monday (http://www.orlandosentinel.com/business/os-seaworld-part-time-workers-hours-20130909,0,6129525.story) that they will join the growing (http://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2013/09/05/trainwreck-obamacare-cutting-employee-hours-limiting-healthcare-options-n1692356)list (http://finance.townhall.com/columnists/mikeshedlock/2012/11/07/restaurants_to_cut_obamacare_costs_by_cutting_empl oyee_hours) of businesses (http://townhall.com/tipsheet/heatherginsberg/2013/08/19/national-retailer-cuts-employee-hours-to-avoid-paying-health-care-n1668101) that will be cutting employee hours likely to skirt regulations set by the 2010 Affordable Care Act.
Part-time employees at SeaWorld are now limited to 28 hours of work per week, compared to the previous limit of 32 hours. The Affordable Care Act stipulates that all employees who work an average of 30 hours a week must be offered comprehensive health insurance.

Gee, if I only had said at some point that it would lead to cuts in hours, and lay offs.... Oh wait, I did call it.
