Funny, I work in a prominent RV company and in 2022 we went to 4 days, too. Productivity is up, morale is high, and there is zero discussion of returning to 5. I wonder if my company partook in that experiment. Has a list of companies been posted anywhere?

As an industrial engineer it’s amazing that this is proving effective in manufacturing environments. I’d suspected it would but much like with WFH, I assumed this was one of those things that had a chance of catching on for office workers but wouldn’t in factories.

The 40 hour work week was a massive success not because it was just right but because cutting hours so workers can rest was hugely beneficial

I wish my workplace tried 6 hours day for an 8 hours day pay. I work as a QA tester and 8 hours isn’t humane. If you don’t know what QA work is, it’s basically banging your head against a wall. I’d be happy to do it for 6-7 hours a day, but 8 is too much for my sanity.

It’s too much for everyone, unless your work is your life.

In jobs where 8 hours are no problem, you usually have some periods of time, where you can shut off your brain. Driving to a new location, frequent breaks in the office or practical duties for some variation.

Corporate desk jobs are awful longer than 6-7 hours.

Agreed! I think all should do max 6-7 hours a day, but it’s really bad when you have an especially mind-numbing work. :(

In most of my jobs I like to use the last hour to lay out what im doing the next day

I’d say I only get 6 hours of work done a day. With WFH I just potter about and go on my phone for the rest of it.

I felt bad about it for a while, but the alternative is that I quit and leave my employer in the shit because the team is tiny and they struggle to recruit.

I work 12hour shifts. 3 days a week. I’m telling you, that’s way better. Sure the shifts are long. You won’t do anything else those days. But you get used to it in a month or two. Once you do adjust, having 4 day weekends each and every week is life changing. I could never go back.

I used to work 10 hours shifts 4 days and 12 hours 3 days. It was not better. The days off I was a zombie.
