I'm all for it. I'm tired of working, just to be existing. I want to work to start actually, living tomorrow is not promised.
As long as I can keep my health insurance, let's reduce my workweek.
Say all stupid people
4 days work week, won't work, because, of America corporate greed!
Exactly. With less hours will we still be able to make a living? What kind of restraints will they incorporate to "make it more fair?"
I work 5 days, but only 5 hours a day. I love it! I go in at 830-130pm and it works great. I get off early enough to get my errands, personal things and Im not stressed!
So you only work 25 hours a week basically. Your salary has to be huge. Thats a good job if it makes ends meet for you keep it espicially in the time were at right now.
What do you do for a living? (If you don’t mind sharing)😊
I worked from home and got burnt out from being overwhelmed. They give me more work
Would be better for people 's health. Don't have kids if you can't bring yourself to spend quality time with them. (I work with the public/families and I get so tired of hearing parents say, "I can't stand the noise.. ", " I gotta get them out of the house!"
Our society has pushed all of us to live TO work instead of working to live. Well except for the rich. They can do whatever the heck they want.
News reporters can do 4 day work week....rotating schedules and reporters. Even kids needs just 4 days school week. School can be very stressful. I'm a teacher and I see how tired kids can get at the end of a 5 days school week. They lose interest
My favorite work shift was 4/10 hour days. I was able to schedule appointments I would normally be required to take time off for.
Dr's, therapy, pediatric and general household chores.
My stress levels went way down.
Loved it.
But you were just taking your 5th day and spreading it out over the other 4.
@@winstonsolipsist1741 Yes, and I loved it. I actually became a better employee as I was able to attend appointments during the week I would normally be required to take time off for.
It also allowed me an extra day to relax and sleep in if I wanted to
This would be amazing; we wouldn't have to cram everything in 2 days we would have a better work life balance.
As long as they are paying equal to the rate of what’s considered a full time 40 hour week
If they did that, then EVERYONE would get a raise. When remote workers move to states with a lower cost of living, Employers will adjust that salary down.
@Sweet Tea that's the point. 100% of the pay, 80% of the hours, 100% of the productivity
Love this work week schedule ! Time in and time off and everyone’s shift is covered with no one person having to do all the work . Hospital and med industry works well .
Please let this happen.
I would love to have Friday's off with the same salary of course. Would be nice to have an extra day of rest and spend time with family.
Right now I work 40 hours one week and 40 hours the next week. That's 80 hours every two weeks. That's a lot! I live in the office!!
I work 84 hours a week. I'm sure tapping keys on a keyboard is so physically demanding and stressful...pfft
YES YES YES YES. THE 40 HR WORKWEEK IS THE LONGEST RUNNING SCAM
Technology enables higher rates of productivity. Documents are written faster, and data is sorted and calculated faster. Communication is cheap and instantaneous. The benefits of efficient technology should roll to labor, not just line the pockets of the ownership class.
Not everyone taps keys on a keyboard for a living. Although I'm sure it's physically demanding and oh so stressful...
Used to work 3 12s for years. I am blue collar. 32 hrs is stupid. Let’s do 4 10s. You don’t need a smaller work week with kids. You can work opposite shifts so no one has to watch your kids.
My last nursing job I worked 4 days on 2 days off People still called out.
Well cost of living did went up last year...and if we do 32hrs then things need to be adjusted...but if we do 4-10 then idk see why not
This is true! Spread the word.
Returning to the office a few times a week actually a healthy divide between work and home. Continuous remote socially unhealthy (John Byrne a great comic artist lol). Does sound like a way to avoid paying overtime.
It can apply to all. Period.
I wouldn't mind a 4 day week even if it's 10 hour days. That's still one less commute per week.
I have been working 4 days a
Week for 3yrs now.
I was just let go from a company that temporarily let me work a 4-day work schedule instead of 5. One of the best decisions I ever made.
The stress of work went down and unwinding became much easier. Now that I am being let go, I seek aggressively to find work like this again and I have found oftentimes that is what tech sales is about if you hit your monthly quotas fast enough every month. You can take more time off by grinding it out for a few extra days for longer than normal hours just to get deals done.
I have a guy I'm talking to who takes about half of the month off on average to play in the Florida Keys and he works remotely. I seek the same opportunity even if I hated sales interactions initially. The upside is much much better plus the amount you get paid to boot.
Some employers will ok if the employees will do 10 hrs / day and 4 days / week. This option may have a better chance to win.
Please pass this and make it law I'm tired of working 5 days I need me time
Don't wait for a law to pass, go find a job that is doing this right now because they are out there and they also allow you to work remotely.
@@infini.tesimo I'm a truck driver no such thing as a 4 day work week, they want you to work 7 days actually
We won’t see this in the states for another 10 years. We don’t even have universal sick days
An opportunity for employers to pay their employees less. How about 4, 10 hour days INSTEAD? 40 hours. Food and housing are too expensive to get payed 32 hours a week.
The point is them to pay the same and for us to stop pretending we're working those 8 hours
I have a 4 day work week.... I work 11 hours per day... 10 for work, 1 hour unpaid lunch time.
We need to stop rewarding mediocrity. And LOL @ profitability went up. Hmmm, maybe b/c they cut promotions and bonuses....
0:42 So, productivity increases when you stop wasting employees' time with unnecessary meetings and that sort of garbage? Sounds to me like there's a lot of low-hanging fruit for increasing efficiency already.
I rather have the additional 8 hours of pay vs. 8 hours of rest/no pay.

Requiring companies to pay overtime starting at 32 hours means you will make less in general
Most companies won't work you over 32 hours if they know they will have to pay overtime
Bad law
Well due to the worker shortage they won't have a choice especially food service, medical, and schools
Now this is funny as some people have to get second jobs just to feed there family 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can U Let Ppl work Part Time & Stay Alive, plz? TF. TY.
Schools should be four days
Definitely younger than you….😂
That's what Socialism does.
lazy workforce
Low paying employers
4 10-hour days seem like the way to go.
It's 4 8 hour days
