Four-Day Workweek Faces Headwind: Workspace CEO Bucks Tech Vision
Despite predictions from tech leaders like Bill Gates and Elon Musk about a future with shorter workweeks due to automation, the CEO of IWG, a major global workspace provider, believes economic pressures and the need for increased productivity will prevent this shift. Amidst cost-of-living crises and business operating cost increases in countries like the U.S. and U.K., companies are focused on maximizing labor output, suggesting that any time saved by automation will likely be reallocated to new tasks rather than reducing working hours. This perspective highlights a divergence in views on the future of work, influenced by economic realities and the global business landscape.
