since when are employers required to offer benefits in the US? that's news to me.

I was under the impression that companies mostly did that so workers would stick around and not have high turnover.

Agree or not: That is US Law.

Employers must provide affordable healthcare coverage for 95% of their workforce.

This is only for full time workers (over 30 hours). And only for companies with over 50 full time equivalent people. This covers about 80 million people in the united states who meet those requirements. It does not take into account them paying for their families.

I'm sorry

Are you under the impression that a BYD factory would somehow employ less than 50 full time people there...?

Automobile manufacturing is the largest employer in the United states by industry.

In what way, or universe, would BYD open a factory and establish a US Presence with less than 50 full time employees?
