    DOOM: Four-day week work

    Four-day week workers face huge pay cuts

    Only a tiny number of companies plan to reduce hours while maintaining pay

    Workers moving to a four-day week are facing big wage cuts as only 1pc of companies plan to offer full pay for reduced hours.

    A third of companies expect most workers to be on a four-day week within the next 10 years, new research by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) has revealed.

    However, the survey revealed that only a tiny number of companies plan to reduce hours while maintaining pay.

    A tenth of firms said they have cut working hours without slashing pay while only 1pc of companies said they would move to a shorter week and maintain staff wages.”

    Err, why would anybody expect otherwise?

    The Tory way will be six-day work week on reduced pay*

    *This does not apply to executive board members

      Given the cost of recruitment reducing hours seems poor business to me.
