Would more flexible working or a four-day week work for you?

You and Yours

Available for over a year

Would more flexible working or a 4 day week be good for you? A major report called The Working Families Index is out today . It looks at the increase in flexible working patterns in the UK and who can access them. That comes ahead of a major UK trial of the 4 day week by thousands of employees for 60 firms. Would a shorter week or more flexible patterns help you out? Have you got experience of the 4 day week? How did it work for you? If you're an employer do you think it's a benefit or a complete nightmare for your business? Email us and leave your contact number [email protected] Or after 11 on Tuesday, call us on 03700 100 444
