Are we operating on a five-day, 40-hour schedule for a good reason? Is 40 the magic number due to tons of studies and data? Are we actually working 40 hours a week or much more? Employees are burnt out and ready to quit. Something needs to change and so we’ve been wondering if the 4-day work week is the answer. On this episode, we are joined by Career Contessa’s Content Director, Caileen Holden, to discuss the pros and cons of a shorter work week + how to ask your boss to switch to a 4-day work week.
