The Boston Globe: Mass. lawmakers look to create 4-day work week pilot program
“The program, dubbed the “Massachusetts Smart Work Week Pilot,” will accept applications from employers across the state. Priority will be given to certain employers so that the program has participants from all sorts of industries, locations, and sizes. The architects of the pilot program will also work to ensure participation from veteran-, women- and minority-owned businesses as well as those owned by people with disabilities.”
““The 4 Day Week is proving to be an invaluable investment wherever it is implemented. Organizations see rising productivity, people are happier and healthier, and the benefits only scale up from there. With this bill, Massachusetts is poised to lead the nation towards a better future,” Jon Steinman, founder and board member of 4 Day Week US, said in a statement.”
