Schor reveals striking findings from trials involving over 10,000 workers: 90 percent of companies stick with four-day schedules, employee burnout drops 70 percent, and productivity often increases rather than decreases. They explore how the pandemic shifted workplace culture, why two-day weekends aren't enough in dual-earner households, and how AI could accelerate the adoption of shorter work weeks. From reducing turnover costs to improving service quality, Schor explains why this isn't just good for workers — it's smart business.
