    4 Day Working Week in Japan - Fast Retailing (Uniqlo)

    4 Day Working Week in Japan - Fast Retailing (Uniqlo)

    Uniqlo to Try Out Four-Day Workweek - Bloomberg Business

    Work 10 hours a day, for 4 days and then 3 days off, still within labour laws of Japan (40 working hours per week)

    Would you take this offer?

    Would take it in a heartbeat. I did in Holland many years ago where this is very common and minimum 25 paid vacation days on top of that. Bliss.

    Yeah, I wouldn't work for that kind of company, but it's a good idea. More efficient in terms of transportation. We all end up staying a bit extra here and there anyway, and by the time you get home, have dinner and relaxed, the evening is already finished anyway...

    I'd do it, an extra 2 hours of work a day isn't all that much, giving me an extra day off per week.
