For 90% of working Icelanders, a 36-hour week means less stress, more job satisfaction and time to enjoy life beyond work
I like to walk around old cemeteries and read the headstones. Here in Iceland, it has been customary to engrave people’s job titles…

Beyond time in this world of technology, machines and mass unemployment that we had a four day week.
Double time for a Saturday or Sunday.
Per couple less time is spent within the home than in the 60’s.
4 days now, as 9 days then.

Have you moved to a four-day week?

💬 How did you adjust your spending?

My thought too. And why work? Isn’t the point of all this machinery to help us is to free up time not to work?
