Happy Easter 🪺 What do you think about the new "4-day week" concept?

Because of Easter I only have 4 official working days this week. Some countries are trying this new concept to improve the work-life balance. Would you offer your employees a 4-day week if they ask for it?

Happy Easter!
Now, we still have to reason whether it will be 4 days of remote or office work

@vova_dev_000 I work remotely so I am most of the time flexible. I think for office work it is the bigger advantage
Happy Easter. 🎉🎉
Happy Easter to you too! 🐣
We have already implemented 4-day work week in our firm, since last October. We had also asked our employees to vote on how happy were they with the concept or if they think we should go back to 5 days a week. Needless to say, we kept the 'new' concept 😄
@dan_burns good to hear that you ask your employees how they want to work. What are the results, does it make any impact?
I think it doesn't matter how much time you spend at work. Some people are so productive, that they can do more in 3 days than others in 5. We give our employees the freedom they need and in the end everybody is happy!

@dan_burns Must be very interesting experience, though I still don't have an opinion on this concept.
You asked your employees, but what do you personally think about it, what is the major reason for you to keep that concept?

@dan_burns @marvin_maendle this is the way to do it. if you have employees you can't treat like adults... get better employees ;)
big fan of the 4-day week
For sure!
I work 7
Happy Easter!
I admire the idea of a 4-day week. It shows a commitment to employee well-being.
I'm currently permanently remote! Let me not ask for too much 😂 Happy Easter 🐣
A 4-day week sounds like a treat every week! Happy Easter indeed! Work-life balance is crucial, so it's great to see new concepts being explored. As long as productivity isn't compromised, why not give it a shot? 🐰🌟
@thestarkster I totally agree with you. Companies should give it a try and when the employees are happy, go for it :)

Thanks!
Please make Easter support for my launch 🚀
It comes with major cons too.
After a 3 day break getting back on track, it would be a lazy Monday.
And also (if someone is thinking of increasing working hours) increasing working hours for the 4 working days can be tiring and exhausting.
This change can be brought about partially and slowly.
In the start give 2 hours of fun time on Fridays then increase 2 hours weekly for different activities. Later turn the day into half day off and then into 4 days a week.
This would help everyone to adjust the schedule without affecting productivity (I could be wrong as never tried though - but can give this a try)
@jigar_bhuva I like this concept. Maybe two hours of sports or wellbeing sessions on Wednesday and Friday. Did you already try it? I know from a company we are working together with, that the employees go there together to a sport session on Monday at 4pm to a local fitness studio.
Happy Easter to you as well ~
Our company hasn't started a 4-day work week policy yet, but I'm very hopeful that we'll be able to try it afterward, I can't wait!
@sanghee_cheong would love to get insights from people who are working like this to see the advantages or disadvantages..
