Obamacare includes a provision that forces employers to offer full health care insurance to any employee working at least 30 hours a week. By expanding employer-based coverage to these part-time workers, companies take on new costs, which end up amounting to millions of dollars. Dunkin' Donuts, the popular donut chain, is joining the fight against Obamacare and the full-time employee mandate, hoping to change the definition of a full-time employee to 40-hours per week, the standard amount.
