Answer: 4-Day work week

Clues: “Short” and “Labor”

Could this week prove that shorter work weeks can be just as productive?  Many people like to think about these short weeks as a lighter workload, but what if this week could serve as a test to show that a four-day workweek could be just as productive every week?

In a new survey, 69% of people believe they could do their job in 32 hours per week.  Only 29% did not think that was possible, while 3% aren’t sure.

Millennials are most likely to think they could make it work (75%) followed closely by Gen Z and Gen X (both at 70%).  Baby Boomers are far less convinced.  Only 48% of working Boomers think a four-day week would work.

And if it did happen, what additional day would you like off?  In the survey, workers overwhelmingly preferred Friday (55%) over Monday (24%).
