PASSAGE
A manufacturing firm recently tested a four-day workweek in one department. Employees worked the same total number of weekly hours, but they had Fridays off. During the three-month trial, the department completed slightly more orders than during the same period the previous year, and unscheduled absences declined. However, the trial occurred during a season when orders are usually predictable, and several employees reported that the longer workdays complicated child-care arrangements. The firm should therefore expand the schedule gradually rather than impose it company-wide. A longer trial involving departments with different workloads would reveal whether the benefits continue under less favorable conditions.
