Every weekend, workers struggle to fit all their chores, hobbies and rest into Saturday and Sunday, leaving them stressed and tired before they even start work Monday morning — so why not add another day to the weekend?
A survey by CNBC found that 85% of workers are in favor of a four-day workweek, leaving behind the nearly century-old 40-hour workweek model for 32 hours instead. And while a three-day weekend sounds like a pipe dream for most employees in the U.S., it’s gaining traction, with big names like Kickstarter, Toshiba and Panasonic offering full-time pay for a shorter workweek.
