4-day work-week pilot due in tech land by early summer

A four-day working week pilot programme is being squarely aimed at the UK tech sector with the final results to be assessed by academics.

The post-pandemic world of work has changed, with many employees demanding more flexibility in their labor location and the hours they put in, amid a tension that many corporations would prefer to revert back to more traditional styles.

>”Nothing better represents the future of work than the tech sector which we know is an agile industry ripe for embracing new ways of working such as a four-day week,” said Sam Hunt, business network coordinator at the consultant.

>”As hundreds of British companies have already shown, a four-day, 32 hour working week with no loss of pay can be a win-win for workers and employers,” he added.

>”The 9-5, 5 day working week was invented 100 years ago and no longer suits the realities of modern life.”

*Disclaimer: As always with these posts, its about 32 hour work week, 4 days a week, 8 hours a day, no reduction in pay.*

It will be all positives (higher effiency, higher revenue, healthier & happer employees) and then be ignored by the masses.

There is essentially no negative effects shown so far in previous studies. Even the management and leadership loves it. Thats why most companies decides to continue with 4day work week even when the trial or study concludes.
