全球第二大富豪提倡每周工作三天
????謝天謝地,今天是……周三了? ????如果卡洛斯?斯利姆的設想成為現實,那今后每個為別人打工的員工就會這么說了。 ????據《金融時報》(Financial Times)報道,墨西哥億萬富翁卡洛斯?斯利姆認為,每周工作3天,比當前實行的5天工作制更可取。 ????在巴拉圭召開的一場會議上,斯利姆分享了自己對新工作制度的看法,他表示:“人們將工作更多年,直到70歲或75歲時才退休,每周只工作3天——每天可能工作11個小時。” ????當然,斯利姆并非第一個提議改變傳統工作周期安排的人。在線教育公司Treehouse便實行每周4天工作制。猶他州的公職人員每周也工作4天,每天工作10個小時,以降低周五的基礎設施與交通成本。 ????斯利姆在墨西哥的固定電話公司允許達到退休年齡的員工繼續留任,每周工作4天,并領取全額工資。(財富中文網) ????翻譯:劉進龍/汪皓 |
????Thank God it’s … Wednesday? ????That’s what workers would be saying if Carlos Slim had anything to do with it. ????The Mexican billionaire thinks that a three-day workweek is preferable to the current five-day structure, according to an article in the Financial Times. ????Speaking at a conference in Paraguay, Slim shared his vision for a new work structure, saying that “people are going to have to work for more years, until they are 70 or 75, and just work three days a week – perhaps 11 hours a day.” ????Of course, Slim isn’t the first to propose changing the traditional workweek. Online education company Treehouse has a four-day workweek. The state of Utah’s public employees work four 10-hour days a week, to cut down on infrastructure and transportation costs on Fridays. ????Slim’s fixed-line phone company in Mexico allows retirement-age employees to continue working four days a week on a full salary. |
