With the help of PS and PAN, Livre managed to get a proposal approved for the government to promote a study and create a program to test the four-day work week. This proposal accelerates a process that the Government had already shown its intention to study, as it wrote in its program.
“In 2022, the Government promotes the study and construction of a pilot program which aims to analyze and test new models of work organization, including the four-day week in different sectors and the use of hybrid models of face-to-face work and telework”, reads the proposal.
The Livre also defines that, in 2022, the Government must promote “a broad national debate and social consultation on new models of work organization, including the four-day work week, as a way to promote greater reconciliation between work and life. Social”. and family life.”
This is a replacement proposal, different from the first one presented by Livre, which spoke of a pilot project with 100 companies, but which turned out to be ineffective.
In the PS program (which the Government replied to in full), the Socialists already advocated promoting “a broad national debate and social consultation on new forms of management and reconciliation of the working day, including weighing the applicability of experiences such as the four-day week in different sectors and the use of hybrid models of face-to-face work and telework, based on collective bargaining”.
Article corrected with the substitution proposal for the Livre, different from the original proposal
