摘要

新冠疫情后越来越流行的每周4天工作制试验挑战了根深蒂固的5天40小时临时政策和做法，在工作时间减少的情况下，促进了员工的时间工作策略。这个定性研究在一个小型企业制造定制产品发现相似的适应性反应在办公室和车间工人。我们发现了四种流行的时间-工作策略:(1)(重新)组织任务，(2)转移(工作)时间，(3)安排沟通，以及更深思熟虑的时间转移形式，(4)将(工作和非工作)时间隔离开来。这些策略似乎反映了员工中介意识的增强。我们讨论围绕可持续性可能出现的问题。

Time Work in the Office and Shop: Workers’ Strategic Adaptations to the 4-Day Week

Increasingly popular post-COVID-19 4-day workweek trials challenge deeply embedded 5-day, 40-hour temporal policies and practices, fostering time-work strategies by employees in the face of reduced working hours. This qualitative study in a small business manufacturing customized products finds similar adaptive responses among both office and shop workers. We detect four prevailing time-work strategies: (1) (re) organizing tasks, (2) shifting (work) time, (3) scheduling communication, and a more deliberate form of time shifting, (4) blocking out (work and nonwork) time. These strategies appear to reflect an increasing sense of employee agency. We discuss possible issues around sustainability.
