Work-life balance: Four-day week is catching on | Voice Of The Global South

A four-day work week is becoming popular around the world, including the Global South. The U.A.E. has done it. So has Chile. More countries are planning to follow suit. Advocates of a four-day week cite studies to say that it boosts productivity, improves mental and physical well-being and reduces stress and burnout. Companies are also better able to retain their employees. But it's met with mixed results in Costa Rica and South Africa.
