WiLSWorld Shorts: The 36-hour Full Time Work Week Experiment

August 18, 2023 WiLS staff

This webinar was held on Friday, November 17th at 1:00 pm CT. The recording can be found on our YouTube channel and you can find the slides, with links to the materials referenced, here.

In early 2023, an article on the 4 Day Week Global movement caught the attention of the WiLS Staff Development team. A growing body of research suggests that knowledge workers, particularly those working remotely, only produce high-quality work 3 to 5 hours per day. At WiLS, we are always looking for ways to boost employee wellness and improve workplace productivity, so we dug into the research and launched a reduced work week pilot, which we conducted over the summer in 2023. The goal? To encourage a healthier work-life balance while maintaining current productivity levels. The result? Come to this presentation with WiLS staffers Jen Chamberlain, Melody Clark, and Andi Coffin to find out!

 

WiLS is dedicated to providing collaborative and community experiences that are free from all forms of harassment and inclusive of all people. Please, be kind.
See our Code of Conduct for details.
