New data from a four-day workweek pilot looks at how workers fared under the test for a year. Democratic Rep. Mark Takano, who has led legislation to make a four-day work week law, commended the report's latest findings. "The four-day workweek can be implemented with positive impacts on workers and businesses, and this extensive study bolsters the employee feedback from shorter trial studies. The four-day workweek is here to stay." In February, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders wrote on Twitter that "with exploding technology and increased worker productivity, it's time to move toward a four-day work week with no loss of pay.

London CNN —Men participating in the world’s biggest trial of a four-day work week spent much more time with their children, organizers say. That is the biggest number of companies to ever take part in such a trial, according to organizers 4 Day Week Global (4DWG), a nonprofit organization. The time male workers spent looking after their children rose by 27%, according to time diaries they kept during the trial. 4DWG ran the study with Autonomy, a think tank, the 4 Day Week UK Campaign, as well as in partnership with researchers from Cambridge University, Oxford University and Boston College. It was “a resounding success,” according to organizers, with 92% of the 61 participating organizations continuing with the four-day week beyond the end of the trial.
