It is time to have a serious conversation about the revolution of work. Being stuck in 20th century-influenced ways of working are making us less productive and unhealthier. #4dayweek is the #futureofwork @4DayWeekIreland @lockhart_charli @andrewhbarnes @4dayweek_global
At the launch of the pilot findings for the @4DayWeekIreland in @DubCham. Some great global statistics available here to start having the conversation with your companies #futureofwork #fourdayweek
The results of this Irish trial have been rigorously assessed through academic partnerships with @ucddublin and @BostonCollege @Cambridge_Uni . Leading researchers @JulietSchor and @OrlamKelly speaking of the global and Irish findings @4DayWeekIreland
For all asking: Please see elaborated report findings here: 4dayweek.com #FutureOfWork @4DayWeekIreland @4dayweek_global
And to clarify one principle: The aim of the @4DayWeekIreland is to implement a 100-80-100 principle of work. 100% pay, for 80% of the traditional working week, for 100% of the same business outcome. #FutureOfWork
We used to work a 6-day work until we found it was bad for business and bad for people. We're now working a 5-day week knowing it is bad for business and bad for people. 4 day work week is the #FutureOfWork
Feel free to reach out or follow for more content about the #FutureOfWork - exciting developments will be shared here in the coming weeks and months from other trials in the UK/Australia/USA/Central Europe 😁 - let’s keep the conversation and momentum going.
If we live up to societies expectations of the β€˜ideal worker’ we set ourselves up for a live of poor wellbeing and health. I talk through the science of fatigue and burnout on this with @WorldOfWork_IO and why we feel SO TIRED all the time. open.spotify.com/episode/72R9xC… #FutureOfWork
Talking all things @4dayweek_global on @FM104 "Switched on with @LouiseTighe " - inception of the campaign, roll out in Ireland, and next steps. #4DayWorkWeek #FutureOfWork kapwing.com/videos/63888e3…
