Could a five-day work week soon be a thing of the past?
The results of a six-month experiment involving dozens of companies are now known: a four-day workweek may actually be better for business.
Workers reported lower levels of stress and fatigue, and company revenues were often higher compared to the previous year.
The experiment concerned 33 companies and more than 900 employees.
In fact, of the 33 companies, 27 responded to a survey after the experiment and none of them said they planned to return to the five-day work week.
A separate six-month trial is currently underway in the UK, involving 70 companies and more than 3,000 workers. The results are expected in February.
