A few dozen German companies have allowed their staff to work four days a week without cutting their wages accordingly. The trial showed promising gains, but are they sustainable across the economy?
Any time this is brought up my fellow Americans immediately respond with the 4x10 nonsense.
But on topic I’d personally prefer shorter days so a 30hr workweek at 5x6 would be cool too. But this is subjective and also depends on the profession. And the point is definitely less hours for same/more pay.
If we talk about the 4-day work week in Europe, it’s common sense we mean 4x8h. No one in their right mind would think about 10h per day.
Glad to hear Europeans are reasonable LOL.

Less hours and more flexibility.
