In a groundbreaking move, 1,000 workers across the United Kingdom are set to participate in the nation’s first official experiment with a four-day work week.
Report informs via The Guardian that seventeen companies have already signed up for the trial, with four more expected to join later.
The experiment, backed by the Labour government, aims to explore the potential benefits of a shorter work week on employee well-being and productivity.
Participating workers will enjoy an extra day off without any reduction in their salaries.
