冰岛研究发现一周工作4天更高效

Cuts in working hours — without accompanying pay cuts — did not impact worker productivity in Iceland, new research shows, and employees reported less stress and an improved work-life balance. Since the trials, 86% of Iceland's entire working population has moved to shorter hours or has gained the right to shorten their working hours. A manager in Reykjavik said, "This was difficult at first, but with changes to our ways of working the cut in hours succeeded."

冰岛新的研究显示，削减工作时间——同时不减薪——并没有影响员工的生产力，雇员们报告说压力更小，并且工作和生活的平衡得到了改善。自试验以来，冰岛全部工作人口的86%已经转为缩短工作时间，或者获得了缩短工作时间的权利。雷克雅未克的一位经理说：“这在一开始很困难，但随着我们工作方式的改变，缩短工时成功了。”
