    While the West is looking for a 4 day work week, third worlders work 7 days a week

    It's a wonder why capitalists seek third world labour.

      Don't you think they too deserve a 4day work week?

      How do you propose enforcing that on 3rd world countries let alone the West? It's almost as if you ignored everything I said and are completely fixated on the subject of a 4 day work week in the West

      The West has a way of enforcing things on third-world countries (withholding economic opportunities for example), but this is a different topic.

      For the West to have a 4-day work week it only takes the people to vote for it. The negative technicalities that are shown in experiments so far are manageable, to say the least.

      If the law is changed in the West, companies will have to follow.

      Well no, if you withhold economic opportunities in poor countries, they will just come live in your country as is happening currently.

      Ah, you believe in voting, that's the problem, we don't agree on this, voting does nothing for the benefit of the people, it's a constant cycle of democratic governments pandering to the masses few months before election then proceeding with their own agenda after the election period passes and occasionally making some pitiful concession if there is widespread angry fist shaking by Westerners so they basically forget about whatever they were angry about.
      Plus, these are by and large free nations, there would be no way that it would be mandated by law for companies to adhere to a four day work week policy and I even bet your own employer says it's impossible, not because it is not impossible but because it's bad for profits.
      At the end of the day, why should I hire you instead of importing in an Indian to fulfill your role for more work and less pay?

      They will WANT to move, but that doesn't mean they can. In order to move to another country you need a visa. And that can be withheld too. Okay, you can have the situation that's at the American border, or the Italian border, but you don't see Aisians going that route. It's very limited.

      As for the voting, I agree with you. For simplicity's sake, I wrote voting. Like the 40-hour work week, this will have its challenges. Reducing the hours to 32, banning overtime on non-working days (the Dutch reduced the time but didn't ban overtime on nonworking days so companies just pay the overtime), and with some shift/workday management, we can even get a company to work 6 days or even 7 days.

      Let's say the first administrative shift of 4 days starts on Monday and finishes on Thursday. The second starts on Wednesday and finishes on Saturday. This is just one combination.

      There are multiple sectors that work in a way that the company is open 24/7. We just need to adapt what they do to achieve the 4-day work week.

      You can pay your Indian how much you want, he can like to work 7 days a week. But from real-life experience we know that this freedom is misused by employers therefore it should be restricted.

      Not many people want to work 7 days a week, most of them work like that out of necessity, because of lack of options.

      As for the boss part. People need to wake up. Reducing company profits for a better work-life balance is a good thing to fight for.
      And it can be achieved.

      Can it be just 32 hours a week? No matter in how many days.

      It can happen when the experiments take a lot of time to run but most of the time there is something else to do or the next step to prepare

      Now there are also studies that prove the opposite. And recommendations to just hire another employee. One extra employee increases the work-life balance for everyone there.

      Looking purely at productivity yeah, but happiness, work life balance, company loyalty are all effected positively by a 4day work week, where as hiring more does none of that

      I meant to hire more people so the work will take less time. Make the 4-day work week, and if the work is not accomplished hire more people.
