WQ83028 (e) Tabled on 21/07/2021

What consideration has the Welsh Government given to trialling a shorter working week?

Answered by Minister for Economy | Answered on 02/08/2021

While the length of the working week is a reserved matter the Welsh Government supports policies, such as  flexible working, which link to fair working practices and have the potential to improve people’s work-life balance.

My officials are meeting with the Four-Day Week Campaign shortly to discuss some of these issues further.
