Talk of a four-day week in the UK has accelerated since the COVID pandemic, though Labour did pledge to introduce it within a decade had Jeremy Corbyn led the party to victory in the 2019 general election.
A four-day week with no loss of pay is being trialled at dozens of companies across the UK from today.
Firms from a variety of industries are taking part, including banking, hospitality, care, and even animation studios. They will still give their workers 100% of their pay, on the understanding that they maintain maximum productivity. It's being billed as the biggest four-day week pilot to take place anywhere in the world, and organisers are working alongside university researchers who will measure the impact on productivity and the wellbeing of staff.Juliet Schor, professor of sociology at Boston College, and lead researcher on the pilot, said:"The four-day week is generally considered to be a triple dividend policy - helping employees, companies, and the climate.
