Canadian companies not planning to return to five-day weeks after four-day trial (www.bnnbloomberg.ca)

No Canadian companies involved in a shortened workweek trial intend to revert back to a five-day week, new research from 4 Day Week Global shows.

Is this

  • cheesy 4-day weeks where it's 4 days x 10 hours; or
  • real 4-day weeks where it's 32 hours a week and no reduction in pay or production?

I'm gonna read the article now, but I'm really expecting to be disappointed. 4-day workweek isn't about job-sharing; it's about realizing the same output with longer weekends and everyone getting the same pay for the same output.

I am pretty sure it's 4x8 since they are trying to be modern with this, I would think. Otherwise it's mostly just posturing I think lol

Article unfortunately doesn't specify.
