May Blob Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Shorter working week When I started work the working week was 5ft 9 inches, how short do people want it to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DnAuK Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I am lucky to be in an office where we aren't obligated to be contactable during certain hours (say 9-5) so can work flexi and build up some hours for an extra day off occasionally. My boss actually has 'compressed hours' built into her contract so she works an extra hour a day and has every other Friday off. But some people, in contact centres for example, aren't so lucky. I've actually thought about this in advance though. When my other half (who is older than me) reaches 60 and can start collecting on a teacher pension, so will move to part-time work, I plan on dropping to a 4 day, 36 hour week at 9 hours per day. I reckon I could cope with the 10% loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
