4 Day Week Foundation Npc

Introduction to the 4 Day Week The time has come for a new way of thinking about the future of work and how we adapt ourselves and our businesses. We believe the conversation for work needs to shift from time to productivity outcomes. By measuring the right indicators we can provide efficient work and allow for more time away from work. The rise of the gig economy represents a new industrial era, and we have not had a conversation about its implications for our economy and society. With the work we are doing in our company and now this white paper, we seek to generate useful data and insights to share with organisations that wish to develop their own productivity and flexibility policies. Our aim is to be a connector and supporter of pioneer businesses who want to take the plunge and research into the effects of a shorter work week on our people, our businesses, our economies and our planet. South Africa is now part of the global 4 Day Week initiative and South African pioneering businesses will be able to participate in a local pilot and be a member of the 4 Day Week SA Coalition.
