FOUR DAY WORKWEEKS HAVE SUPPORT

_ A new survey of Americans finds serious interest in a proposal to adopt a four-day workweek, as has been tried out in a number of companies and organizations around the world.

A UK experiment saw 56 of the 61 organizations that tried it keep it after the trial period. The companies said the four day workweek resulted in higher employee satisfaction and higher revenue.

All told, 87 percent of U.S. adults are very or somewhat interested in a four-day workweek. When asked if they’d still be interested in a four-day week even if that meant that remote work was never allowed, still 51 percent of Americans backed it.
