A four-day workweek can improve employee health, both physically and mentally.

This is evident from the 2023 Long-Term Pilot Program Report released by 4 Day Week Global (4DWG), a non-profit organization promoting employee well-being.

In 2022, 4DWG initiated a six-month pilot program of a four-day workweek with a three-day weekend across 41 companies in the United States and Canada, involving a total of 988 employees.

4DWG then researched the performance of the companies and employees during the trial period.

One of the findings was that after a six-month four-day workweek, employees' physical health improved from an index score of 3.05 to 3.36.

Employees' mental health also improved, rising from an index score of 2.92 to 3.36.

This index score was derived from employee self-assessments of their health, on a scale of 1 (very poor) to 5 (excellent).

4DWG also found that 57% of respondents felt their productivity increased after implementing a four-day workweek.
