We've all heard of the four day work week, but most companies are yet to have an alternative work schedule system in place.
Groovy Green has a detailed article on the benefits of a four day work week. Among the benefits mentioned are:
-Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants
-Less traffic congestion
-Increase productivity
-More time with the family
I think the only thing holding us back is the fear that productivity will drop, which isn't true, as it's not dependent on the time you spend at work. Come to think of it, a work from home program would be even better, but I think that's crossing the line already.
