In this episode:
Most corporate businesses structure their processes around a five-day, 40-hour work week without considering alternative production methods. Yet many employees have grown tired of this antiquated structure and desire additional freedom and flexibility. How can you offer your employees a four-day workweek without compromising productivity?
Studies show that working less leads to a 25% increase in productivity, reduces expenses, and mitigates employee turnover. As the originator of the global 4 Day Week, veteran entrepreneur Andrew Barnes encourages companies to test this system. Successful implementation requires analyzing and adjusting your current systems to promote efficiency and eliminate productivity barriers. Offering a four-day workweek with consistent pay allows employees to recognize and adapt their behaviors and processes to generate equal output in less time.
