&gt; Now, Scotland is hoping to see similar outcomes when it pilots the scheme for some of its civil servants, The Times reported Sunday.<p>&gt; The move, set to be unveiled by First Minister Humza Yousaf, will impact a range of departments and will reportedly run for about 12 months, the outlet said—without citing sources.<p>So there is no official confirmation for this yet. This would supposedly run for a year on a subset of gov workers, I guess it&#x27;ll be interesting data if the scale is wide enough.<p>As an aside, this article only rehashes another news article[0]. Perhaps it would be better to have that as the main source instead.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thetimes.co.uk&#x2F;article&#x2F;civil-servants-to-switch-to-four-day-week-under-snp-plans-bq938mbkr" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thetimes.co.uk&#x2F;article&#x2F;civil-servants-to-switch-...</a>
