More than 3300 workers at 70 companies have started working a four-day week with no loss of pay in the biggest ever four-day week pilot to take place anywhere in the world.
From Monday, June 6, organisations are trialling a four-day week with no loss of pay for employees, based on the principle of the 100:80:100 model - 100% of the pay for 80% of the time, in exchange for a commitment to maintain at least 100% productivity.
The pilot is running for 6 months and is being organised by 4 Day Week Global in partnership with leading think tank Autonomy, the 4 Day Week UK Campaign, and researchers at Cambridge University, Oxford University and Boston College.
