4-day Work Week “Trial” for 45 Companies in Germany
4-day Work Week “Trial” for 45 Companies in Germany. It may seem paradoxical, but as Germany grapples with a shortage of workers, several companies are embarking on an experimental shift towards a shorter workweek. In February, 45 companies and organizations in Europe’s largest economy will implement a 4-day workweek for a six-month trial, led by consulting firm Intraprenör in collaboration with the non-profit organization 4 Day Week Global (4DWG). Notably, employees will continue to receive their full salary throughout this period.
