CARACAS, Venezuela: The government of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is planning to establish a 6-hour workday.

Labor Minister Roberto Hernandez says he will propose a bill this year to reduce the workday, improve employee benefits and establish "more forceful" penalties for businesses that violate labor laws. He spoke Wednesday.

The president's allies hold a majority within the National Assembly and most bills proposed by Chavez's administration are approved.

Chavez presented the same proposal as part of a constitutional reform package that voters rejected last December.

Before the vote, some business owners warned that reducing the workday would force them to cut jobs or close down.

Siesta time or cure for a rampant dis-occupation.
