迄今为止规模最大的四天工作周试验是在新西兰的一家名为Perpetual Guardian的金融公司开展的。试验表明,员工的工作效率提高了。
Its chief executive, Andrew Barnes, said: “This is an idea whose time has come. We need to get more companies to give it a go. They will be surprised at the improvement in their company, their staff and in their wider community.”
该公司的总监安德鲁·巴恩斯说:“这个理念的时机已经成熟。我们需要让更多公司尝试这一工作制。他们会惊讶地发现,公司、员工和周边的情况有了改善。”
He said it helps level the playing field between women and men, partly by making it easier for mothers returning to work because they don’t need to commit to five days and by making men more available for domestic duties.
他说,这有助于为男性和女性创造公平的竞争环境,一方面能够让妈妈们更容易回归职场,因为她们无需再一周工作五天,另一方面也能让男性分担更多家事。
Billy Jenkins, a middle manager at Synergy Vision, said: “It has caused a little tension in the household, as my partner works five days a week and seems to come up with a wishlist of errands or chores that need doing on my day off. It’s also hard to shake off the feeling that I should be working, and it has taken time to feel more comfortable using the time as my own.”
