I'm interested to hear peoples opinions on this one.
The normal working week is seen as 35-40 hours (5 days x 8 hours) based on a 9-5 day.
For the purpose of this thread lets say 8 hours a working day.
Nowadays with longer travel times to work, peoples work/life balance is being skewed and stretched even more, and with 5 days on and 2 days off, is it time we started to review the 5 day working week.
This could be done in the following way:
4 x 10 hr days (instead of 9-5 either 8-6, 9-7 or even 10-8), allowing for either Sat/Sun/Mon, Fri/Sat/Sun, or even Sat/Sun/Wed off.
Interested to hear what people think... personally I'd be happier to work an extra 2 hours a day and have a 3 day weekend every week.
