More than 70 British companies are testing out a four-day workweek. The trial, lead by nonprofit 4 Day Week Global, kicked off at the beginning of June. In the pilot program, more than 3,300 employees in the United Kingdom get one paid day off each week.
Forty-one participating companies have reported mid-trial results – with 88% saying that the four-day workweek is working "well" for their business, according to a Wednesday press release.
In addition, 46% of respondents said their business has "maintained around the same level" of productivity. Some saw further benefits with a shortened week – with 34% reporting that productivity has "improved slightly" and 15% saying it has "improved significantly."
