The thought of a four-day working week is an appealing prospect for many and thousands of British employees have now signed up… with no loss of pay.
A hundred companies in the UK have signed up to the idea, meaning 2,600 staff will now benefit from a new working pattern. And, of course, three days off a week, the Guardian reports.
Proponents of the four-day week say that workers will be just as productive than if they were on for five days and many firms obviously agree. It just doesn’t benefit staff, as it is believed companies that offer the new working plans can be more attractive than others, while it should be easier to retain personnel.
