Mitä Four-Day Week on? | HR--glossaario | BambooHR
A working pattern that reduces the standard working week to four days, often without cutting pay.
A four-day week compresses or reduces working time so employees work four days rather than five. In the most discussed model, hours are genuinely reduced while pay stays the same, on the basis that productivity is maintained.
Advocates point to potential gains in wellbeing, retention and focus; sceptics question whether output can be sustained across all roles and sectors.
Organisations trialling it should define clear productivity measures and coverage arrangements before committing.
