Our thanks to Ken for Labour MPs call for four-day week as part of workers’ rights package. Labour MPs are calling for a four-day week, with workers being paid the same as they are currently paid for a five-day week. An extract:
Maya Ellis, Labour MP for Ribble Valley, said: “Data shows that working four days leads to greater productivity than five. [J4MB: Think of how high productivity would be if people worked only one day a week!]
“That means in public organisations for example, that we can get through a higher volume of tasks, creating the increase in capacity we so desperately need to see in our public services.”
