Entrepreneur Adam Ross argues in favour of a four day working week after he found it boosted productivity in his own company.
The overwhelming response from the staff was hugely positive If I told you that my staff are the most productive they’ve ever been, you’d probably ask how I managed to make them work more. The 1,300 people in 17 offices we have across the globe are the happiest at work they’ve reported as being, all because we allow them to work a four-day week, while being paid for five. And the same amount of work is being done as before, just in less time.
Anybody would say it’s not logical, that if you put less hours in, you’re going to see improvements. But actually, people work smarter and they’re able to drive greater levels of productivity because of that. It’s saying to people, ‘here’s the greatest incentive you could ever want, we’re going to give you back time, and we’re going to pay you the same.’ And then they come up with ways to become more efficient – it’s been fantastic to see.
