hourly workers.
Warned of slippery roads, commuter trains and subways blocked, like the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) subways, people who serve food, sell the goods, and cleaning offices lost wages valuable Monday.
later, even with overtime, many of them will not do what they lost, according to a study of the costs of snow for 16 states in March by the American Alliance of road users.
"Snow closures related damage at worst paid workers, accounted for nearly two thirds of direct economic losses," concluded the study (. Pdf), conducted the most massive of IHS Global Insight, an economic research firm based Lexington in lost revenue for businesses, taxation and other government costs, the economic impact of even one day of rest along the east coast of $ 183,500,000 in the Maryland area for 700 million U.S. dollars in New York.
storm this weekend was particularly hard on the belt of states from North Carolina to Maine. Besides Maryland, reported the Associated Press, said five other states of emergency on Monday - North Carolina (not included in the study), Virginia (260 million), New Jersey ($ 289 million), Massachusetts (265 million) and Maine (not included in the study).
This suggests that the cost of this snow storm could top $ 1000000000. You could even when failures continue until Tuesday.
In New York, stories ran in MTA commuters for hours. The MTA service on a long suspension railway Iceland, Hudson, Harlem and New Haven lines of its Metro-North rail service, some of their buses and even some of their underground lines.
"The MTA urges its customers to stay at home, if possible," the Transit Authority said in its advisory winter.
The effects of these suspensions are particularly difficult for employees, because they must work to earn money in order.
However, workers are generally not lose days of snow days. And loss of productivity is lower because a growing number of employees can work from home.
For example, if a lot of snow in Washington, DC, made in February this year and place of origin of federal officials for nearly a week, was the first estimate that the government has lost 100 million U.S. dollars per day lost productivity. The following month, however, revised the Office of Personnel Management on the screenshot below U.S. dollars 71 million per day because about 30 percent of employees within the federal government in the Washington area have been able to work remotely from home.
There is no benefit to working distance for workers. Workers in industry and construction may pay in hours lost much of their income, the study proposed by the American Alliance of road users. Is for others, employees of shops and restaurants unlikely - especially those in the offices of people, the study found.
