Three of the ten managers reported no loss of productivity despite a 20% reduction in hours – so effectively staff were about 20% more productive.
The other seven reported productivity being even higher than before.

I really hope we all accept a 4 day week in the next decade
so do I, but surely they don’t try cramming 37 hours into 4 days
I love the idea of the 4-day work week, I would need to better manage my time. Since I work from home full time I need to ensure I stick to a schedule as I do tend to work more than the regular hours since I’m so much more readily available.
The 4-day week I think would force you to be more productive. When Wednesday comes around you realise oh no! Only 1 more day left, better buckle down and do the work.
Time management is a real skill and honestly probably should be something that is taught not only in high school, but I think workplaces could benefit from a training seminar or something along those lines where employees who think they struggle with time management can try and improve themselves.
Though for your issue, turning off the computer or turning on do-not-disturb hours for your work IM client would probably be a benefit
It’s a skill that I wish I learnt more about when I was in school. I’ve been getting better!
Yes, the do-not-disturb is something I’ve recently been trying. I’ve been given more responsibility as of late and have made sure that I’m only pinged now for emergency work, giving me more time to be free to do my own thing. Like, sit in front of the computer studying!
Ah, the life of never leaving the computer!
I run two entirely separate phones, one for work and one for real life. I tell my partner that my second phone is for my secret girlfriend, just to sound interesting and dangerous but it’s really for Teams and email
