Özet
Reduced working time has emerged as a central topic in modern management, driven by proposed legislation like the U.S. Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act and widespread international pilots. Recent empirical research, including a significant multi-country study published in Nature Human Behavior, demonstrates that income-preserving reductions in work hours significantly enhance employee wellbeing, physical health, and job satisfaction while maintaining overall productivity and boosting talent retention. However, achieving these positive outcomes is not automatic, as simple schedule compression often introduces work intensification and fatigue rather than genuine recovery. Successfully implementing shorter hours requires treating the change as a work-design intervention by eliminating low-value tasks, tailoring schedules to operational demands, and establishing rigorous measurement metrics. Ultimately, organizations must proactively build time capability to manage working hours strategically, ensuring that productivity gains and regulatory shifts are navigated effectively regardless of legislative mandates.
