Four-day workweek
This summer, Carlisle Local Schools is allowing summer staff to work a four-day week.
Carlisle staff are working 10-hour days to enjoy a free Friday each week.
The change was not made to save on gas - though I’m sure one less trip into work is saving them a pretty penny this summer - but as a reward for being good workers, the superintendent said. The school will go back to its regular schedule in August.
A recent article in USA Today said state workers in Utah are going to a mandatory four-day week. The change was made to reduce the government’s energy costs and is expected to reduce energy use 20 percent by 2015, according to the article.
The article also says younger people entering the workforce favor the schedule, which allows a better work-life balance.
What do you think of a four-day workweek?
