Canon is set to trial a new four day working week in the UK, allowing employees to work fewer hours on the same salary – with supermarket giant Morrisons following closely behind.
The British arm of the camera giant will trial a three day weekend with no loss of pay, as part of a six-month trial run by academics at the universities of Cambridge and Oxford.
The pilot will see staff from different organisations completing the usual amount of work, and up to 35 hours each week, but split over four days rather than five.
