More than 30 companies will take part in a trial of a four-day working week to 'herald in a bold new way of working in 2022,' researchers say. From a report: The global pandemic has impacted how long and where people work with Working From Home guidance giving an opportunity to experiment with normal work life. The six-month trial will attempt to measure whether workers can operate at 100 per cent productivity for 80 per cent of the time.
