Earlier quoted context omitted.

Maybe I'm too cynical, but the first thing that came to mind for me was: "Just few-enough hours that employees have no benefits."

The magic number for the benefits cut-off is 20 hours/week.

I'm not sure what you're referring to -- Amazon policy? -- but the usual critical-point is 30 hours, for full-vs-part-time legislation and stuff like the ACA.
