A four-day work week in Russia is a matter of a short future, RIA Novosti said Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Labour, Social Policy and Veterans Yaroslav Nilov.
“I think the transition from five to four days is a matter of the near future,” the parliamentarian specified.
At the same time, Nilov warned against “legislative application.” Enterprises will come to this as artificial intelligence emerges, which will take over some of the functions that were previously performed by the workers themselves.
“The main condition here is a phased evolution, in no case coercive application,” – specifically Nilov, clarified that artificial “impositions only harm.”
As a result, the next case of the development of technological progress will arise, which will allow people to spend less and more time on “investing in themselves and their intellect”, noted by the people’s choice.
In particular, none of them had side effects.
As the site kp.ru previously wrote, Dmitry Medvedev, speaking at the 108th session of the International Labor Organization in Geneva, spoke about a possible transition to a four-day week for the start of public publication in early June 2019.
“Employers should pay more and more attention to their employees,” Medvedev said. “The likelihood is that the future lies in a four-day work task.”
According to him, the constant pursuit of success “turns into systemic fatigue, chronic stress, people sometimes just burn out at work,” which leads to an indicator of labor productivity.
