Finland Introduces The Idea Of 4-Day Work Weeks So Employees Can Spend More Time On Recreational Things

Isn't it harsh, working 5 days a week? I mean I know we all have bills to pay and mouths to feed, but were we truly meant to be all work and no play? That leaves very little time for activities with your family. Hobbies. It's almost as if we are being stifled, especially the working class. Everyone is so exhausted after working their tails off to only have the government dip their dirty paws into it. That includes federal and state.

Some countries have seen this issue, so in their attempt to hack the system they have sought out to implement a 4 day work week. When Microsoft Japan carried out their experiment with the 4 day work week, they noticed that they'd had an almost 40% increase in productivity.

With that, Sanna Marin who is Finland's new prime minister weighed in as to why she thinks this new work week schedule is beneficial for society as a whole. And would like to introduce it to her country.

Unfortunately as of the 7th of January 2020, the Finnish government released a statement explaining that the idea was brought up by the Prime Minister Marin, however it is not currently included in the governments agenda.
