More Northern Ireland employers are warming to the idea of a four-day week if workers compromise on home working.
That is the finding of a new report from recruitment company Hays which surveyed 464 employers and employees throughout Northern Ireland, unveiling overwhelming support from the latter for a four-day week.
Over 70% of workers said they would rather work a four-day week – with all four days in the office – over a five-day hybrid working pattern. The draw is such that the majority said they would be tempted to move to an organisation if they were to offer a shortened week.
