Chris Langer, top right, co-founder of CMYK, a digital design agency, speaks with an staff member at their office in New York, Tuesday, June 25, 2024. Last year, Langer started hearing chatter about the four-day work week, so he decided to try it out during the summer. With summer having gotten off to a scorching start, workers across the country may be dreaming of a seaside escape or cutting out early to watch a movie in an air-conditioned theater.
Special summer schedules don't work for all types of industries, however. And it takes some trial-and-error to figure out the best option for each company. “It’s just helped us retain our team during the ‘Great Resignation,’ people are just like losing people left and right,” he said. ”And I think we went 23 months without having someone resign. And that’s just such an important benefit and competitive advantage.”
Communicating with the company’s tight knit staff, who have all worked together for years, makes the four-day week doable, Langer said. Of course, summer hours don’t work for every company. Retail stores risk losing customers to big box stores or others that are open for more hours. And employees that are paid by the hour rather than set salaries can balk at getting paid for fewer hours.
