My husband implemented the four-day workweek (4 days / 10 hours) for his company in 2024 and it proves to be popular with the employees. I know there are many workweek variations, so I’m curious which one you’d prefer the most.

    Three twelves. I’m all for cramming a 40hr work week into 3 days. Same amount of work, and so you are going to be trashed those three days and a half a day after, but it’s 4 days off a week.

    Allows for work life balance if it’s block scheduling. If you have a scheduler who throws 12hr shifts out all over the week though, it can destroy your life.

      There’s a lot of a jobs that depend on other people, or significant concentration, or weather/sunlight where this isn’t at all feasible. Interesting answer though, I also thought along the same lines when I was in my 20s but now I would hate that schedule
