Do you think a four-day workweek will ever become commonplace in America?

Do you think a four-day workweek will ever become commonplace in America?

👍 Yes (44%) – "One of the most popular workplace buzz phrases that has infiltrated virtually every conversation about work, is the phrase "work/life balance". It has become much more than just an individual goal. It's really starting to become a collective, cultural mindset. And for that reason alone, I think that more and more people will be pushing for all of us to get to a place where the work week and the weekend truly are balanced, in every sense of the word."

  • "With many rural school districts going to 4-day weeks, the remote capabilities being spotlighted from the pandemic, and the "quiet quitting" epidemic, I think we will slowly move toward that. I look for a 4-day week to become a selling point for companies looking to hire."

👎 No (42%) – "While a 4 day work week sounds delightful, and would most likely help with mental health across America, I don’t think it would ever happen here. Most businesses would only see lost profit at the end of the day, and not care about additional benefits to workers."

  • "In America control is a huge factor for our government and company owners. They don’t want give anything that the lower class would appreciate. Also, America is all about no handouts. The owners and leaders of this country will view a four day work schedule while being paid the same as a handout. It’ll never happen. We’re currently closer to a civil war than to a four day work week."

🤷‍♀️ Unsure/other (14%) – "Never say never, but I don't see it happening any time soon in the US. Although if remote work continues to grow and companies around the world start using the 4 day week as a competitive benefit, many businesses may have their hand forced."
