But it would double the amount of jobs in other sectors as well.
Lots of industries can’t just stop 4 days a week.
I think a lot of industries that aren’t attractive right now would be more attractive with shorter hours. Which would mean they could hire more people.
Exactly. Would require we invest in educating people properly rather than setting them up for minimum wage jobs because we need them filled.
Some of them could be filled by people right now, such as teachers and nurses who left the field because they felt overworked (and underpaid).
