What’s going on:     

Small businesses are most likely leading the charge in adopting 4-day work weeks, according to a report by LinkedIn. The report highlights a recent survey published by Gusto, which reveals that around 10% of businesses operating in tech and professional services are offering a shorter workweek, while an additional 14% are also considering it.  

The study found that, despite the adoption, there is no notable difference in a company’s ability to attract talent or reduce employee burnout. However, Gusto stated in the report that “businesses offering a 4-day workweek were 20% more likely to say they had maximized the positives of remote work – indicating a 4-day workweek might pair well with a more flexible remote strategy.”

Why it matters:     

Remote and hybrid work environments are becoming increasingly prevalent in the post-pandemic economy. Larger firms are rapidly adopting some form of hybrid work that requires employees to come into the office for a specific number of days out of the workweek. The data published by Gusto suggests that the increased adoption of remote work policies has been trickling down to smaller and midsized businesses. Among companies that started in the last three years, 31% were completely remote and 47% were hybrid, according to Gusto.  

The findings from this survey provide valuable insights into how companies can improve performance, attract high-quality talent, and maintain a positive company culture in a remote or hybrid setting.

How it’ll impact the future:       

The research shows how smaller and midsized businesses are more likely to adopt remote and hybrid work environments. As more companies embrace remote and hybrid work, employees will likely have greater flexibility in their individual work arrangements, which could lead to improved work-life balance and reduced burnout in the workforce overall. The adoption of these new workweek policies will also encourage businesses to prioritize clear communication and goal setting in order to ensure productivity.
