Reasons for change: 4-day work week

America has always been slow to adopt changes to the work week. It wasn?t until the late 1920s that the idea of a shorter work week?from 6 to 5 days?gained widespread support. The 5-day 40-hour work week has been the norm in the U.S. since the Fair Labor Standards Act passed in 1940. For today?s businesses the 4-day week could be the logical next step towards work flexibility, where productivity and creativity are measured rather than the number of ?face time? hours put in at a specific workplace location whether office or remote.
