Is the Four-Day Work Week the Answer?

Episode 18

Tuesday, April 29, 2025 • Duration 35:28

Is the four-day work week really the solution we’ve been waiting for—or just a flashy band-aid for a bigger issue?

In this episode of HR Leaders Lounge, we explore the deeper questions behind the four-day work week conversation:

- How burnout, flexibility, and productivity are shaping employee expectations
