Recent progress toward shorter hours among certain sectors of UK workers has set a starting point for a winnable demand for workers everywhere: a four-day workweek.
I mean there is not evidence it would work but we have evidence a workweek of 5 days split between two people was economically viable. 3 days would be 6 days for a family so it should be able to work as well or better.
The evidence a 2 day workweek would work is the fact that productivity has increased by an order of magnitude since the 2.5 day workweek (averaging between husbands and wives) was created.
It’s time for a 2 day workweek. That’ll be actual progress.
