The Big Debate: A four-day week would be good for Brighton
Can a four-day week ever be a win-win for both employees and employers? Hear from an expert panel, where we’ll investigate and discuss the four-day week at the next Big Debate from Brighton Chamber.
Would a four-day week (but with the salary of five) lead to better mental health, improved gender equality, more innovative side-hustles and higher productivity in the 21st-century world of work? Or is it just another way for corporates to attract and reward the top talent in a way that smaller businesses could never afford?
Join us and help us to investigate where it is working well and why, and what the argument and pitfalls against are.
Our chair:
Richard Freeman, CEO, always possible
