Here in The Netherlands it is quite common for employees to work 4 days a week and receive 80% pay. Most employees will even ask you about it during the interview process.
Most of the people I know who do this is because of the cost of daycare here, which is in most places higher than your rent or mortgage. Both partners will work 4 days but have different off days, so they pay only for 3 days of day care.

- ernestipark 4y agoYes very common in Germany and other European countries as well.
- lnsru 4y agoAny real data about it? Can you backup somehow this thesis? I experienced only old school managers hating part time employees in Germany.
- ernestipark 4y agoIts part of German labor law that it’s required under certain circumstances. That doesn’t mean managers like it necessarily of course. I’ve had friends do it successfully.
- fnomnom 4y ago>under certain circumstances its basically: be 6 months in the company when the company has more than 15 FTE. the company can deny it but its the same as the "Nebentätigkeit" thing where the reasons have to be substantial and its not that easy.
