In 4 days you will be able to find clear and truthful information about the advantages, disadvantages, and challenges that this revolution in the world of work implies.

We hope that the information we offer will inspire more people and companies to consider this new way of understanding work.”. it states Laura Dug, spokesperson for 4 days For them, the reduction in working hours should not be seen as a way to get away or seek subsidies, quite the contrary. “The objective of reducing the working day should be to improve the quality of life of workers and strengthen a healthy business culture, thus increasing the happiness of the workforce”.
