tldr; Full results will not be published until February, but at the halfway point 86% of companies had said they intended to make it permanent.<p>They defined &quot;four-day week&quot; as 32 hours without a reduction in pay.<p>There is legislation pending [0] to allow any worker to ask for a 4 day work week which sounds very week as the company can just say &#x27;no&#x27;. Even if this passes I don&#x27;t think it means anything. However, the trial is promising and it&#x27;ll be interesting to see where the UK goes with this.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theguardian.com&#x2F;money&#x2F;2022&#x2F;dec&#x2F;05&#x2F;uk-staff-to-have-right-to-ask-for-flexible-working-from-day-one-in-job" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theguardian.com&#x2F;money&#x2F;2022&#x2F;dec&#x2F;05&#x2F;uk-staff-to-ha...</a>
