One of the more interesting innovations from the spike in gas prices came with organizations, big and small, adopting four-day work weeks. With gas prices down significantly since the summer, one might think that idea would now become passe.
Not so, according to the city of Concord, NH. According to this story, their experiment with a four-day workweek was a big success in terms of cost-savings this summer. In fact, it was enough of a success to cause the city to decide it will implement the program in the Spring of 2009.
Will other organizations who adopted four-day work weeks also follow suit? Stay tuned.
