Field report

One year of a four day week at the agency

Twelve people, one experiment, every number in the open.

What got better4

  • Sick days down by a third
  • Meetings are shorter and better prepared
  • Two more applications for every open role
  • Revenue stayed the same

What got harder3

  • Clients reach us less easily on Fridays
  • Urgent cases need an on call rota
  • The first eight weeks were exhausting
8.5 out of 10

Our verdict

We are keeping it. The free Friday costs planning, but it brings more calm than it takes.
