A major Aussie employer has begun a trial of the four-day work week in an effort to improve employee satisfaction.
Private health insurer Medibank said it was “challenging long-entrenched traditional ways of working” by offering 250 of their employees a six-month trial of the four-day work week starting this month.
Medibank People, Spaces and Sustainability Group lead Kylie Bishop said this was the next step in the company’s approach to a more innovative and high-performance culture. She said the company hoped it could empower employees to focus on work that had the greatest impact for customers and cut down on wasted work.
Macquarie University’s Health and Wellbeing Research Unit will independently measure a range of employee and customer metrics, including customer advocacy, and operational metrics like absenteeism and attrition, productivity and performance effectiveness.
