Is a four-day workweek too good to be true?  In this month's episode, Alison Dunn, CEO of the Society Matters Group at Citizens Advice Gateshead, joins Samantha Pritchard and Jill Donabie to discuss the four-day workweek, debunking the myths about how this can function within a charity.  After initial scepticism about this new work pattern, Alison watched 'Redefining Productivity: The 4-Day Workweek' and felt inspired to participate in a pilot program for the four-day work week. She explains how it has affected Citizens Advice Gateshead and its employees, ensuring they have time to decompress from the complex and emotionally taxing issues they advise on.  Alison shares the journey toward this new scheme, detailing the board's reaction to the proposal and its impact on occasional absences and retention rates.  Jill Donabie, partner in our employment team, joins the conversation and raises questions about the legal ramifications of the four-day workweek.
