There are likely several hundreds, if not thousands of companies already offering a 4-day work week or something similar.
For example, I work at a company called Forestreet (https://forestreet.com https://forestreet.com) and we already offer a 9-day fortnight.
The idea is that you condense your work week into 9 days, and take the 10th day off.
There are pros and cons to this model, but overall it's working very well.
- 5555624 4y agoWe've had that "9-day fortnight" for years. Initially, it was slow to catch on, as the "10th day" was Wednesday. Once it was changed so that employees could pick the day, most people picked Monday or Friday. An added "bonus": It all but eliminated meetings on Mondays and Fridays, as there were always some people out on those days. On Sundays, you don't need to worry about a meeting the next day; on Friday, you can catch up on stuff.
