VANCOUVER—This Labour Day, workers and employers should push for improved productivity, the key to a four-day workweek and more work-from-home opportunities, suggests an article released today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank.
“The pandemic has encouraged workplace innovations that can continue into the future if workers become more productive,” said Steven Globerman, resident scholar at the Fraser Institute and author of Four-Day Work Week and Work-From-Home Initiatives Hinge on Improving Productivity.
