What People Are Saying

''A must read for anyone interested in the 4-day week'' - Heejung Chung, professor at the University of Kent and author of The Flexibility Paradox

''This invaluable book offers a clear way forward: we don't need to burn ourselves out, we can work less and get more done'' - Rebecca Seal, author of SOLO: How To Work Alone (And Not Lose Your Mind)

The Benefits of a 4-Day Week

The 4-day week is no longer just an idea. Following successful trials in countries as far apart as New Zealand and the United Kingdom (where nearly all companies involved opted to continue beyond the pilot), research now shows that a shorter workweek benefits both companies and employees, increasing productivity, wellbeing and staff retention.
