A four-day work week would be great, but is SA ready?

A four-day work week is every employee’s dream and is attracting growing interest in countries around the world, including South Africa, but what does it entail? “Local employers must understand the model, decide if it will work for them and know how to implement it effectively,” says Kirk Kruger, master reward specialist with the South African Reward Association (SARA). “The four-day work week should not be confused with the so-called compressed work week,” he says. For the compressed work week, employees receive the same pay and work the same hours per week. However, they work more hours during on-days to make up their weekly total of hours worked. <a href="https://kaya959.co.za">Kaya 959</a>
