March 1 2024- The four-day workweek is proving to be successful for companies, with reports of increased employee happiness, lower turnover, and improved efficiency. Recent data from a trial in the U.K. show that in 2022, 61 companies shifted to a four-day workweek without reducing pay, initially as a six-month experiment. Today, 54 of these companies still maintain the policy, with just over half declaring it a permanent arrangement. The trial, organized by the think tank Autonomy in collaboration with the 4-Day Week Campaign and 4 Day Week Global, suggests that the positive effects of the four-day workweek are enduring and encouraging companies to make the change permanent.
