Employees want to work smarter, not harder — and a four-day workweek is one way they can do just that.
When the switch to remote work first happened at the start of the pandemic, employers were worried about how a digital environment would impact productivity and engagement. As it turned out, employees felt more productive at home than in the office: 83% of employers and 71% of employees considered remote work to be a success, while 52% of bosses thought productivity improved during the pandemic, according to PwC research. Experts agree that employers can expect similar results from employees who work just four days a week.
