Sweden sees it differently, Sweden wants just six-hour work a day


M

ost of the Western World, including Australia, wants to see workers with their shoulders to the wheel for longer hours, but Sweden sees things dramatically differently, it wants people to work six-hours a day.

This wonderful advance was discussed in a story published today in the Melbourne Age - “Sweden is moving towards a six hour working day as Australia's hours increase”.

“As work-life balance worsens in Australia, Sweden continues with its renowned family friendly policies by shifting to a six hour working day.

“Businesses across the Scandinavian country are implementing the change so workers can spend more time at home or doing the activities they enjoy”.
