The last two years have accelerated new ways of working and collaborating. Before the pandemic, we couldn\u2019t seem to get off the starting block despite increased investment in tech and a rising movement among workers. \u201cHybrid\u201d is what will finally pave the path to permanent flexibility. Today, the traditional 9-5, five-day workweek looks rather old-fashioned. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Workers are rightly calling for more flexibility, better work-life balance, and more choice in deciding when, where and how to best do their jobs. We\u2019ve just kicked off the biggest pilot ever over the last few years, the results of which and future phases will likely run and be analyzed and debated. All signs point to an evolving definition of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The four day work week is a hot topic. Belgium\u2019s right to work a five-day week in four days with no loss of salary. Iceland\u2019s \u201coverwhelming success\u201d trialing a shortened work week with \u201cdramatically increased\u201d employee wellbeing. And the UK business-driven four-days\u2019 work, five-days\u2019 pay, or the seven-day \u201cjust get your work done\u201d model are just some more examples. The “working week, working hours”-debate is not new and it\u2019s not done, that\u2019s for sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, positive change like a four day work week, means a future of work that is more flexible, more oriented towards wellbeing and more purpose-driven than we could ever have imagined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
