Well that and no way is any worker outside of one with a very strict deadline requirement pushing every minute they are at work. People find countless ways to either slow their work speed or spend extra time in the bathroom or sitting at their desk doing non-work things. It does vary from job to job, but that's pretty much what most 4-day work week experiments have found: With shorter weeks, employees have generally been found to be more productive, getting the same amount of work (sometimes even more) done in fewer total hours. Naturally, there's no one-size-fits-all solution (especially when dealing with jobs where being present and waiting for customers to show up is important), and to that end I'm not sure how well blanket legislation would actually work, but there's plenty of evidence out there that blindly sticking to a 5-day/40-hour standard yields no actual benefit to justify the impact it has on employees in many cases. --- This is my signature.
