Probably true but based on the study it's capitalism at it's best qualities from a company standpoint.

Costs are reduced when workers are paid 20% less. Wild study

 

[chineebai]

most people ain’t working 8 hours a day at office jobs so consolidating it to 4 days makes sense

I'm sure they're still getting paid for 5 days of work (ie. salary)

Are they gonna pay hourly workers higher and are International companies gonna be able to handle their American business units reducing their hours? If not, then quit teasing us for all these years

I believe this is the link for the study.

Would you prefer a four-day working week?

A team of Cambridge social scientists have been conducting research on the world’s largest trial of a four-day working week.

I believe the pay is the same in this study described as a paid day off.

My employers are US based company. Unless I change jobs or UK make this a law, I’m not seeing this for me in the near future

This. How many white collar jobs are people REALLY putting in 40 hours a week

If you find that there are days were you're putting in 2-3 hours of work tops, just streamline this shyt and give me a day off

4 day weeks and hybrid working is the future. I work for a financial services company but my boss has a policy that no meetings are allowed on Monday mornings and Friday afternoons so we can ease into the work week and wind down for the weekend better. As a result, everyone in the team has her back 100% because she cares about us as people.

It was trialed across multiple sectors and is based on a standard 9-5 working day (with an hour break for lunch)
