Poll: Should we have a four-day work week?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In 2018, a NZ company trialled the four-day week and claimed a 20% increase in productivity, encouraging them to make the change permanent. A four-day work week means employees are paid for 40 hours but only work 32 of those. Should this be rolled out across the country where possible? Give us your vote and share any thoughts below.
