As an Aussie currently enjoying a blissful 0-hour workweek, the idea of a 4-day workweek sounds like a delightful upgrade! Starting from December 1, 2024, Singapore is rolling out flexible work arrangements, including the option to work just four days a week. Now, if only we could get that down under!
In Australia, the average workweek is 36 hours, which means we could be looking at 9-hour days if we compressed it into four days. Not too shabby, right? Imagine having a three-day weekend every week – more time for barbies, beach trips, and binge-watching footy!
Would I choose a 4-day workweek if I could? Absolutely! The work system could definitely use an update. After all, who wouldn’t want to trade in the daily grind for a bit more R&R? My ideal working time? Let’s just say, the less, the better! But if I had to pick, a 4-day workweek with 9-hour days sounds like a fair deal.
Hope this brings a smile to your face! 😊
Do You Look Forward to a 4-Day Workweek?
Starting from December 1, 2024, Singapore will implement a comprehensive set of guidelines for flexible work arrangements, which includes the option for employees to work four days a week.
The standard working hours in the UK are 5 days * 8 hours, but according to the International Labour Organization, the actual average weekly working hours in the UK are only 36 hours. If compressed into 4 days, it would be 9-10 hours a day.
