Would you like to have a 4-day workweek? And how would you compensate the extra day off?

by•
The 4-day workweek is a big debate in many countries, and research claims it boosts productivity and overall employee happiness. Would you like to work 4 days instead of 5? And if so, would you work longer days or have fewer vacation hours in return?

I would prefer to spread my work over five days in exchange for a shorter work day than a four-day job. I have a young child who goes to school and I need to pick her up on time. Maybe 4 fixed days plus one flexible day is a better option

I like the idea of having a 4-day work but I suspect that I will be too bored after a while since most of my friends do not have that.

For that extra day, I will prefer to start some self-learning or projects that can boost my career. Sometimes it is just hard to squeeze extra hour to start any kind of self-learning after a long day

Even working 4.5 days with slightly longer days and one very short day would be great in terms of work and life balance. But it's actually the idea of having more control over when & where you work that I really love.

It's awesome if you work monday and tuesday than have day off and then thursday and friday. In my opinion you will be more productive and more concentrated on your task so in result more work will be done

Work longer days or trade in vacation hours, either would be ok for me.

we are doing a 4-day work week experiment in our team right now. we have done a bunch of research but have not heard of companies reducing holidays when applying a 4-day work week? do you have a blog post or example that explains this more?

I already work long hours as is, so yes, give me 4 days a week.

4-day workweek, interesting idea. It can be beneficial to employee satisfaction and productivity. For compensation, maybe longer work hours or fewer vacation days. It would depend on the company and individual needs.
