Some companies have been talking about adopting a 4-day work week for a while. Now, studies are proving its success!
33 companies in the US and Ireland switched from 5 days to 4 during a 6-month trial period. At the end of the 6 months, 27 completed a survey about their overall experience. Here are the results, courtesy of 4 Day Week Global:
18 are keeping the 4-day week
7 are planning on continuing the 4-day week, but haven’t confirmed it yet
1 is leaning towards continuing the 4-day week
1 is unsure
Companies also saw a 37.55% revenue increase compared to the same six-month period the year before.
Employees in the trial were just as enthusiastic as their employers. On a satisfaction scale of 0 - 10, employees rated their average overall experience a 9.1. Also, 67% of employees said they were less burned out during the period. Employees also exercised 23.7 minutes more per week and enjoyed a better work-life balance.

Creating freedom, accelerating growth, and maximizing profits isn’t dependent on how many hours or days per week you work. It’s about making the most of that time. Are you ready to work less and make more?
