That sounds extremely complicated to me! Now when I'm scheduling meetings, I have to consider a constantly shifting schedule! Are clients/partners/customers/etc also aware of this policy? What time do employees drop their kids off at school?
If we as a society wanted to adopt this solution (which admittedly requires societal agreement—I think you might need that anyway!), I actually think changing clocks would be the only way to make it work. Most clocks these days are or could be computers, so we could make them adjust themselves by 15 minutes every Sunday, and no one would have to think about it.
- naniwaduni 5y agoThis is a problem we already have in the form of people taking lunch at different times. We can schedule meetings around lunch just fine.
- Wowfunhappy 5y agoAt the companies I've worked at, people "dealt" with this by taking lunch when they didn't have meetings, not the other way around
- jedberg 5y agoI think you’re over complicating it. Lots of businesses already change hours throughout the year (and even the week!). Think of a restaurant or museum. Different hours every day. Or places in tourist destinations that have long summer hours and short winter hours. For most companies it wouldn’t be hard to say “no meetings before 9am from November to March”.
