𝟵𝟬% of employees reported increased well-being due to the four-day workweek. . This result was recently published in a study by Intraprenör and 4 Day Week - Global. Imagine having every Friday off - with no reduction in pay. Sounds like a dream, right?

How often have you canceled plans or postponed seeing friends because work called? And maybe for a job you don’t even like. Sure, work is important. But should it really overshadow everything else? The reality is that we spend most of our time at work. That’s why it should be more than just a means to an end. A study by 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑭𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒌 at Cognizant confirms this. The “Purpose Gap” study shows that the new generation of employees values passion for their work (𝟱𝟵%) and a healthy work-life balance (𝟱𝟯%) 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 money (𝟰𝟵%). Burnout often occurs when people work overtime for goals they don’t truly care about. We all know the feeling when we do something that brings us joy and fulfillment; time flies, and what we do feels easier. But when the only motivation is the paycheck, with the hope of one day being able to stop. That doesn’t work for long. Of course, earning money is important. But beyond that, doing fulfilling work should be high on the list when choosing a job. What are your thoughts on this? Does your work bring happiness, or are you counting down the days until your next vacation? #MysteryMinds #HR #WorkLifeBalance
