Dozens of countries have already tried the four-day week, but not one has adopted it completely. It’s time to take off the pink glasses and familiarize yourself with the advantages and disadvantages of this model, Delfi Life writes.The idea of the four-day work week came from the Covid-19 pandemic, which caused employees and employers to rethink the necessity of working from the office. The concept is simple: employees should work four days in a week. Companies that decide to reduce the length of the
work week, reduce the number of meetings and rely more on self organization of work. Supporters of the concept emphasize that this approach increases employee satisfaction and hence and productivity of work. Trade unions across Europe are actively supporting this idea, but many
countrieshavealreadyexperimented,andnoneoftheyhavetilltheyhaveadoptedthefour-dayworkweekcompletely.
