In the UK we work too many hours and get too little out of it.
It’s time to put the focus on working smarter, not longer.
It’s time for a 4-day week. ⏰
“There’s little doubt now that AI will produce real productivity improvements. But there’s no guarantee that most of us will share the benefits of these improvements.
A return to the long-paused process of gradual reductions in working hours is urgently needed.”
Long work week? 😮💨 It doesn’t have to be this way.
Join us on April 30th to find out how we got here, which other options are out there, and what you can do to win yourself a shorter working week.

The 5-day work week was invented in 1926.
Think about how much the world has changed since then.
Computers. Space travel. Smartphones. AI.
So why are we still working the same hours as a century ago?
On April 30th, we’re hosting a panel in London to discuss how we finally move that dial.
