  • Reduced productivity: Will be difficult to maintain the same level of productivity in four days as in five. This is because employees may have to work longer hours on each workday, which can lead to fatigue and burnout.
  • Increased stress: A four-day workweek can also lead to increased stress for employees, as they may feel pressured to get more done in less time.
  • Negative impact on customer satisfaction: If a business introduces a four-day workweek without adjusting its customer service hours, it may lead to decreased customer satisfaction.
  • May not suit all businesses: A four-day workweek may not be practical for all businesses, especially those that operate on a 24/7 basis
  • May not be suitable for all employees: Some employees may not be able to work a four-day week due to personal or family commitments

disadvantages, 1. disadvantage for people who have several jobs and fulfill them with more than 48 hours, because they will not be able to do it, 2 disavantages for entrepeneurs because the will have to hire more people and their obligations will incrase, lowering their liquidity, which can generate bankruptcy. https://padlet.com/carlstellamolina/zn4hop9zd84maimg/wish/2746247075 2023-10-14
