Our new research, published in Nature’s Humanities and Social Sciences Communications journal, explores the practical experiences of 15 Australian firms that have tried switching to this model.
All but one of them decided to continue with the four-day work week. And none reported a loss of productivity.
Over two years, we interviewed 15 firms that had formally trialled the 100:80:100 version of the four-day work week.
This is where workers get 100% of their normal pay, but work 80% of their previous hours, in exchange for maintaining 100% of their previous output.
Good its clearly proven our overlords just want 11000% and will not budge but this is helpful
This surprises literally no one who has paid attention in the last decade.
My company had a really high turnover rate and everyone was generally unhappy. Last year they dropped us down to 4.5 days with full pay. We haven’t had someone leave since then.
Are any of the companies involved in the trials firms that generate revenue by employees billing fractions of every hour out of their day? That would be curious to see how that might work for say, a consulting firm or a law firm, where people are routinely working more than 40 hours a week to get through their workload and hit revenue targets. I can’t imagine hours could be cut in those cases and still get the same results.
Are there any studies on how much a 4 day week effects people’s desire/willingness to have a family?
I wonder if a 4 day week wouldnt be a reasonably effective aid in combating the replacement rate issues so many countries are facing.
I work 4 days a week. The longer days can sometimes be tiring and make fitting stuff around work a bit harder but I’d say it’s worth it!
