4 Companies with a 4 Day Week šŸ”„

Before we get to the companies...

Here's 7 reasons why I think the 4 day work week (80% time, 100% pay) will soon be the norm:

šŸ‘¦ 1. Gen Z are getting older: The biggest supporters of the 4 day week are Gen Z. And as they progress through their career - they will command more leadership positions (to push change).

šŸŒ 2. Global warming: As climate change gets worse, we'll naturally look for solutions. And a shorter work week is one of them. A shorter week = lower consumption e.g. in a recent 4DW pilot, employees traveled 26% less

šŸ’Ŗ 3. A shorter week increases productivity: Various studies have shown a 4 day week increases productivity. Output doesn't drop. When people have less time, they become more efficient (Parkinson's law).

šŸ„ 4. Burnout recently hit an all time high: In May 2021, workplace burnout hit an all time high (42%), partly due to an "always on" remote culture. A solution? A shorter work week.

šŸ’­ 5. Opinions have changed: If COVID brought us any good in the world, it was a workplace revolution. People are questioning what "work" looks like in 2023

šŸ¤– 6. AI, AI, AI: AI is going to disrupt the entire workforce. Productivity is going to skyrocket, and with it we should be able to (in theory) work less hours.

āœØ 7. It's the new remote work: Five years ago, remote work was the ULTIMATE benefit to attract talent - but now that differentiator is gone. So, what's next? A 4 day work week.

What do you think, have I missed anything?

p.s. what's the next best thing after a 4 day work week?

Setting your own hours with full flexibility.

5 day week, 20 hrs per week, 4 day week? No problem.
