A majority of young professionals polled in a survey believe working a non-traditional work schedule could be more efficient to them getting their work done.

A shorter work week is something any working professional would dream of, and this sentiment is shared among a younger generation of workers who say they don’t need a traditional 40-hour work week to finish their tasks. A survey conducted by CNBC/Generational Lab polled 1,033 people between the ages of 18 and 34 with 81% of respondents saying they support a four-day workweek because it would boost their productivity, compared to 19% sharing that their productivity would plunge.
