It should be up to a company to decide, and employees can then choose themselves where they want to work

Only if it doesn’t stay as a 40 hour workweek If it stays at 40 hours allow the option of 4 or 5 days

I think it should be an option for every employee to consider for themselves and decide which option would be most productive and healthy for them as an individual

Depends on the job. Teachers students lecturers snas etc. their job can unfortunately not be done in 4 days they need the time and contact hours with students

A three-day week would be more practical; it would free up people to deal with the many random issues that they would otherwise have to take time off work to deal with.

This would be nice but is not a pressing issue for Ireland
@9H76M6G12mos12MO
People should not work unless they want. No capitalism. But this is a step forward
@9F49VTM1yr1Y
No, this should be up to the employer
