Companies are still trying to find the return-to-office sweet spot, whether offering hybrid arrangements, flexible work schedules, or a four-day workweek.
Management consulting firm Insigniam has seemingly found that happy medium after instituting a 4.5-day workweek, with employees in the office Monday through Wednesday so long as they aren’t meeting with clients. The firm didn’t land on this number arbitrarily; it listened to employees, says Shideh Sedgh Bina, a founding partner at Insigniam.
The firm first conducted an experiment where one group of employees worked fully remotely, another hybrid, and a third group worked four days. Based on employee feedback, the firm’s leadership learned that the four-day workweek group was reporting far lower stress levels.
