Unilever NZ Testing 4 Day Work Week

What does Unilever New Zealand hope to achieve with a 4 day workweek?

  • improved productivity
  • a greater work life balance
  • measure performance on output not on time
  • keep salaries the same

What is NOT the goal: “If we find that we’re all working the same number of hours as before but in four days, then we’ve missed the opportunity this trial presents us with”
