The article mentions that while some workers may be willing to sacrifice flexible working for a four-day workweek, the trend is still growing and only a small percentage of companies are actually implementing a four-day workweek.

The article discusses the idea of a four-day workweek as a potential solution to the stall in return-to-office plans.

Although many employers are not considering implementing a four-day workweek, 34% of them said they would be more likely to if employees spent all four days in the workplace.

The article suggests that a shorter workweek may encourage employees to return to the office organically, as it provides a common sense of purpose and drive to be more productive.
