In a first-of-its-kind proposal in the United States, some Maryland lawmakers want to subsidize employers that choose to experiment with a 4-day workweek. More precisely, it would subsidize employers that agree to try out a 32-hour workweek without reducing their full-time employees’ weekly pay, which is based on 40 hours of work.
The bill in its current form caps what the state would spend in total on program participants’ credits at $750,000 a year for five years. So if there is huge interest by employers, Maryland’s Department of Labor will have to select which ones may participate. In addition, the state would have to pay the costs to administer the program, which Stewart estimates might come in at $250,000 a year.
It’s the best. I worked the 4 day work week back in the late 1980’s and I just retired working 4 days a week. It’s well worth the 10 hour days during the week and 3 days off.
And close everything on Sunday's
Is that 10 hour days? I thing that’s a great idea.
Stop being damn lazy and go to work
Come GavinNewsom! Make it happen!
A revolutionary idea... that's been tried, tested, and failed in countries that demand/ expect GDP growth. Yeee-haw !!!🤠!!!
9 working hours each day are a high price for a longer weekend. Especially for older workers and those who are physically strained.
that makes sense
Need more of this in Texas!!
Do it for something uplifting like families that Homeschool...don't just toss more spare time out there and expect taxpayers to pay the bill..oximoronic
