The 4-Day Work Week: Why Working Less Could Make Us More Productive

The 4-Day Work Week: Why Working Less Could Make Us More Productive

 


Could a four-day work week actually make us MORE productive?

In this episode of FOR & AGAINST TV, we make the strongest evidence-based case FOR a four-day work week and explore what happens when people work fewer hours without taking a pay cut.

From productivity and employee wellbeing to burnout, sleep, work-life balance, staff retention and business performance, there is growing evidence that working less doesn't necessarily mean getting less done.

We look at real-world four-day work week trials in countries including the UK, Iceland and Australia, examine the evidence behind the 100:80:100 model, and ask whether the traditional five-day, 40-hour working week is still the best way to work.

Could fewer hours lead to:

• Higher productivity?

• Less burnout and stress?

• Better work-life balance?

• Fewer sick days?

• Happier and more engaged employees?

• Better employee retention?

This is the case FOR a four-day work week.

But there's another side to the story.

Watch the companion “Against” episode to hear the strongest arguments on the other side — then decide for yourself.

What do YOU think? Would you take a four-day work week if your pay stayed exactly the same?
