Final answer:

During the Great Depression, wages were cut and many workers lost their jobs.

Step-by-step explanation:

During the Great Depression, wages and number of hours worked were indeed cut for many workers. However, it is not accurate to say that few people lost their jobs. In fact, over 80 percent of automotive workers lost their jobs, and even the Ford Motor Company laid off two-thirds of its workforce.
