The four-day work week can reduce turnover, reduce recruiting requirements

About a year ago, Poche et Fils conducted a trial of the four-day work week that has since become permanent. Employees at the Montreal-based clothing companies receive the same pay as when they were working five days a week, and the company has sought to maintain the same productivity too. The first step was identifying tasks that were time-consuming and useless -- and eliminating them. But there are other ways that a shorter work week can save time too. A new generation of workers is negotiating not on salary, but on hours, said Desautels Prof. Jean-Nicolas Reyt in an interview with T茅l茅journal Montr茅al. But the approach can have benefits for businesses too. A more manageable schedule can lead to less turnover, and that means less time is needed to recruit new employees.
