It made no difference before if the person had 28 or 38 hours, it cost the employers no more per man hour, they have to hae bodies on a shift. With the new requirements anything over something like a 30 hour/week average for a three month period requires the employer to offer health coverage.

We're going to see much more of this. It will cause places to have more part-time positions available so at least more people can work, like students, that would be a small upside.
