If you do anything today, make sure your boss reads this!
There’s a major push at the moment to introduce a four-day working week.
The Guardian reports that the introduction of a four-day week would be hugely beneficial in tackling unemployment and underemployment. That it would greatly reduce the amount of people suffering from mental distress and high blood pressure. While it would also increase productivity, help the environment, improve family lives, and raise happiness levels over all.
Now that doesn’t sound too bad at all...
The Think tank’s Will Stronge, an advocate of the four-day week, also told the Guardian: ‘’We want to shift people’s perspectives, to better work and less work.”
So essentially the argument is quality over quantity.
What do you think? Three day weekend every weekend? Sounds good to me!
