Why people are split
The four-day side would happily trade two extra hours a day for a three-day weekend, every week. The five-day side says a 10-hour shift is brutal, especially with a commute or kids to pick up.
How people voted
The live split shows on the card as soon as you vote. The vote count appears here once 50 people have voted.
A fun poll that anyone can vote in, once per device. It's not a scientific survey.
FAQ
Is a four-day work week the same as four 10-hour days?
Not always. Some plans keep 40 hours over four days, and others cut the week to about 32 hours with the same pay.
Do four-day weeks work?
Results vary by company. In the UK pilot, most of the companies that tried it chose to continue.
