Scotland will allow some civil servants to switch to a four-day working week, The Times reported, with the launch of pilot schemes affecting a number of departments and agencies.

First Minister Humza Yousaf is expected to announce the plan Tuesday and the experiment will run for about 12 months, the London-based newspaper said, without citing sources.

Morning Consult's separate State of Workers report finds that some 4 in 5 millennials say they're always, often or sometimes too tired after work to enjoy things in their personal lives.

Gen Zers, often stereotyped as wanting to upend workplace norms, are less interested in the benefit (83%). Young professionals may feel pressure to prove themselves in a workplace, or they may fear falling behind doing the same amount of work in less time.

Baby boomers, meanwhile, show the least amount of interest (72%) in a shorter week.

Portugal has become the latest country to announce a trial of a four-day week, following the example of the likes of Belgium, the UK, and others.


Conversations around the four-day workweek were first reignited by the COVID-19 pandemic, with workers and employers rethinking the importance of workplace flexibility and benefits.

The idea is simple – employees would work four days a week while getting paid the same and earning the same benefits, but with the same workload.

Companies reducing their workweek would therefore operate with fewer meetings and more independent work.

Hailed as the future of employee productivity and work-life balance, advocates for the four-day workweek suggest that when implemented, worker satisfaction increases, and so does productivity.

Trade unions across Europe are calling for governments to implement the four-day working week, but which countries have embraced the idea and how is it going so far?

Meaning baby boomers are most reluctant to change, cannot adapt to change, unproductive, is it?

It makes sense as technology makes work more efficient.
