Herbapol, a company based in Poznań specializing in herb processing, announced that they are testing a shortened workweek. Employees in the company now work not 40, but 32 hours per week. Importantly, their pay remains unchanged. In the first quarter of this year employees have one free Friday, and by the end of the year, every fifth day of the week will be a day off.
The company explains that this is an experiment aimed at reducing stress among employees and increasing productivity.
