Henley has recently published a study that revealed 65% of UK businesses (that were surveyed) have begun implementing shorter work weeks for some or all of their employees. Relative to the 50% who answered a similar survey in 2019, the increase is striking and not only that but the businesses which have introduced a four-day week are already seeing significant financial savings as the businesses surveyed claimed to have saved approximately £104 billion.
