Sweden introduces 6 hour work day * 1
    #22439370 - 10/27/15 09:15 AM (8 years, 3 months ago)

God dammit Sweden... I am officially jealous. I'm gonna take the steps to migrate there.e If shit becomes unsustainable I just gonna back here.

How amazing is that?

It only reminds me how far back Canada is compred to them and were only like 3 spots down the list. Oh the differences 3 spots can make...

Employers across the country including retirement homes, hospitals and car centres, are implementing the change

Sweden is moving to a six-hour working day in a bid to increase productivity and make people happier.

Employers across the country have already made the change, according to the Science Alert website, which said the aim was to get more done in a shorter amount of time and ensure people had the energy to enjoy their private lives.

Toyota centres in Gothenburg, Sweden’s second largest city, made the switch 13 years ago, with the company reporting happier staff, a lower turnover rate, and an increase in profits in that time.

Filimundus, an app developer based in the capital Stockholm, introduced the six-hour day last year.

“The eight-hour work day is not as effective as one would think," Linus Feldt, the company’s CEO told Fast Company.

"To stay focused on a specific work task for eight hours is a huge challenge.  In order to cope, we mix in things and pauses to make the work day more endurable.  At the same time, we are having it hard to manage our private life outside of work."

Mr Feldt has said staff members are not allowed on social media, meetings are kept to a minimum, and that other distractions during the day are eliminated -  but the aim is that staff will be more motivated to work more intensely while in the office.

He said the new work day would ensure people have enough energy to pursue their private lives when they leave work – something which can be difficult with eight-hour days.

“My impression now is that it is easier to focus more intensely on the work that needs to be done and you have the stamina to do it and still have the energy left when leaving the office,” Mr Feldt added.

According to Science Alert, doctors and nurses in some hospitals in the country have even made the move to the six-hour day.

A retirement home in Gothenburg made the six-hour switch earlier this year and is conducting an experiment, until the end of 2016, to determine whether the cost of hiring new staff members to cover the hours lost is worth the improvements to patient care and boosting of employees’ morale.

The standard of living, the cost of living and the wages are high in Sweden as far as I can tell.

I don't think many will be complaining.

The waiting list for an apartment in Stockholm is seven years.

so they force employers to pay more and get less, this cost a company which can
put them in bankruptcy, they lose the business, the 100+ employees at each
company lose their jobs and soon half the country is out of work which gives
everyone more leisure time... sounds like a win/win

So is every employer being forced to go to a 6 hour work day or what?  I'd the government forced me to work only 30 hours a week I would be pissed. This whole idea is for the birds.

like if you actually look at it people dick off like 75% of the time anyway especially in corparate jobs. People will get the same amount done in the 6 hours for cheaper but its still a stupid law to mandate.

... And then comes the economic collapse, the government's bankrupciy followed by years of anarchy, which then creates violent uprisings and senseless murder causing a genocide.

Essentially Sweden having a 6 hour work week will lead to the destruction of the planet via nuclear war. We should put an end to it now before it's too late...

I don't see what's so wrong with living your life and spending time with, and depending more on, family and friends than a job. I'm not a Mercedes guy. Volvo is good enough for me and my family.

I'll gladly take fewer hours for the same pay, it's like getting a raise but how
does the government makes sure the company I work for doesnt go under because of
the financial strain, the plant I work for employs 900 people, that's 1800 hours
per day, 9000 hours per week they'd be paying for, that comes to around $135,000
each week they'd be paying out for the hours not worked, it's $7 million per year
that the company would be losing in labor but how much would the be losing in
product that would have gone to pay for those hours, how many sales would they
lose if they cant meet the demand for orders

so sure, you're a volvo guy now but under these sorts of policies you could be a Yugo guy

even if they dont pay them the same, how will a company fill orders with fewer work
hours, how will families support themselves taking a huge cut in pay, can you
imagine what it's like to take home $150 per week less when you have a couple of
kids and a wife you're supporting?

they can hire more ppl part time n shit i mean it actually makes more sense in this day n age the work day is 24 hr so to split it up into 6hr shifts makes more ssense to me plus productivity will go up when you treat people fairly and let them have more time to really be on point when they are in the office deadlines are still deadlines and all this. the people who live on that tight of budget can get another job this is 2015 ffs "booo hoo i cant afford to live on one job" guess what the company is never gonna care about your feelings, or your family, or your little problems you whine about so get that shit right out of your head its 2015 jesus.

ok, so you're all for children starving because employers cut hours due to new
mandates, do you somehow believe that everyone is making $25/hr, remember those
fewer hours also mean fewer consumer purchases because of those tight budgets
which means local businesses will earn less and have to staff with fewer employees

fewer hours doesnt mean more productivity, it means fewer hours and the lower
income employee is the one that suffers unless they're keeping that weekly pay
which means the whole company suffers and will result in layoffs and possibly
even closure

no it will jus all shift around the individual people are working less hours you see the companies still ggoing 24/7. theyll have to staff with more employees for the same amount of pay. which is kinda a headache but gives more of a talent pool to draw from. The people who cant aford to feed thier kids will figure it out thats not the companies problem dewd nobody cares :lol:

Yeah, and it's ball-breaking.

Do they have salaried employees in Sweden? I wonder how this works for them.

the actual number is less than 75% but there are of studies that show that the majority of american office jobs have a productivity rate of about 60-70% on average if I remember right.

obviously that can't fly with some jobs (construction, bartending, servers, etc.)
but for most office jobs that tended to be the case.


it's hard to stare at a computer screen for 8 hours a day and actually be productive the ENTIRE time cause it's just not stimulating.

Ill tell you a secret some of you might not know. most people that work in a corporate office job especially low on the totem pole are fuckingg dumb as rocks like really really really dumb. Most of them barely try to do anywork at all even tho they are basically as shitty as they can be at it. They all say they work harder than anyone and its the company or the bosses fault or the government especially when their jobs get outsource overseas or the company folds entirely. These are the people the banks give credit cards to and get hired really easily because they look good on the resume!  These are the people who should make minimum wage but they think they deserve 6 figures plus benefits. Its a joke.

Yeah I would have to agree, his logic back there was pretty atrocious and mostly based on assumptions.

The whole point of less hours is that many people will work harder for shorter periods.

Sure some people might not but they will probably be fired for not being productive, nothings changed there.

Think about how many families across the world are strained from parents who are out working all the time and come home too worn out for their kids.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

And think, they could hire more people, giving alot of people more good jobs. Instead of a 12 hour shift, itd be 2 employed people each doing 6'ers instead. I think it'd be alot easier to get the right amount of people to run a factory 18 hours a day if not the full 24. Giving WAY more jobs and easin' the load.:peace: Especially for these factory guys, who have a hard go doing it so long nearly everyday.

I love this idea. I do maybe 5 hours of work a week at my job, the rest is sitting around browsing the internet. I am not lazy, am just very proficient at my job.

Would be so much happier with a 3X12 option. And would be every bit as effective

But they're saying the 8 hour work day is too long and 6 is just as good and people will be less distracted.


I don't think anyone's going to be getting 3 12's but honestly I'd do that, sounds pretty sweet.

I think there's a fundamental misunderstanding with Americans about the way the world works. Not everything is about the boss or his company. Life is a ride not a job. A statement like that will piss off an American, but I get it. I also bet almost anything, that somehow, miraculously or not, Sweden doesn't go bankrupt, the ice thaws again, and the citizen's quality of life goes up. I haven't noticed one Swedish person griping about this, and they've been speaking English since they're in grade school.

The boss thinks he is, but if he really  was so good he would buy a closet full of suits, he would buy a degree, and gleam enough money to make the rest of us look like idiots. The New American dream.

Most of them barely try to do anywork at all even tho they are basically as shitty as they can be at it. They all say they work harder than anyone and its the company or the bosses fault or the government especially when their jobs get outsource overseas or the company folds entirely. These are the people the banks give credit cards to and get hired really easily because they look good on the resume!  These are the people who should make minimum wage but they think they deserve 6 figures plus benefits. Its a joke.

I like working 12 hour or more shifts, more money, more days off. 5 days of 6 hour shifts would cost me more in train fair too. I feel it's waste to come in to office for just 6 hours. I would just get another part time job.

they will actually get more work done per shift because when u work say 12 hour shifts people get so worn out and tired.  This way people will come in full of energy and leave full of energy, everyone wins, everyone's happy.  and yah im sure they will just add more shifts, the individual person will work less, buisness will work the same.

sweden doesn't have a big bloated government so maybe they can pull it off, the only reason america is so fucked is because our gov is like 4x too big.  if we didn't have to pay any tax's at all, we'd all be stinking filthy rich

it doesn't make sense that americans continue to work more and more hours, when we also create more and more electronics/machines that make things easier to do, its fucking stupid and clearly shows that our system is broke

Public spending in Sweden is about 53% of the GDP, which is one of the highest figures in the Western world.
Public spending in the US is between 33% and 43% of its GDP, so substantially less than Sweden.
GDP per hour worked in Sweden is around $57, in the US it's about $67.

From an economic perspective, it seems to be an issue of income distribution. If you look at the Gini index, Sweden scores 0.259 while the US is somewhere around 0.35. His indicates that the distribution of income is more even across the population than in the US.

Everyone can already negotiate with your employer to work 6 hours a day.  Sweeden has just made it illegal to work more than 6 hours for base pay.  The only thing they did basically is eliminate the choice to work as lomg as you like.

do you actually believe this shit?




Yup, because that's how the world works.

Let me guess, you believe they just got "lucky". Am I right? "Luck" is why they're successful and you're not? That's just a cop-out, dude. If you work hard, you'll get somewhere. If not, you won't. Simple as that.



Haha that's really not how it works man. You even said yourself you've never worked an office job before. Ever heard of nepotism?




I'm not talking about office jobs, I'm talking about jobs in general. Every boss I've ever had has busted his or her ass to get to where they were.

God bless Capitalism!

If that were true, most women in Africa would be millionaires.

So the CEO works 300x harder than his average employee? :filosoraptor:

I believe the phrase "work smarter, not harder" applies here. If you want to spend your life doing grunt work, go ahead.

But if you have the intelligence to make that work work better for ya, you'll rise to the top.

Simple as that.

He jacked up the price of the 70 year old drug to $750 per pill which was not 500x but 5500x.

You are only speaking from from your personal perceived experiences, and it doesn't seem well thought out our compassionate to me. Because while we speak, somebody's grandmother is cleaning some little entitled shits toilet. Sorry for the rant, but I feel your analysis is off base. Just because someone may not be as smart as you doesn't mean they are here for other's gain. They deserve a great life too.

I'm not saying they don't, but if they want a good life they can go out and work for it.

If they don't like it, they can move to a communist country :shrug:

No, what you're saying is if they want to live they have to go work for it. There's a difference. Let me try to illustrate my point. Imagine you're in the nearest large city, 11 a.m., at a Starbucks. You tell me what kind of people are there and how hard they're working. How about at about three p.m. at the nearest smoothie king. How hard are they working then? Then let's compare that to my hard working labor employees at the same times and see what they're doing. And ask yourself if you really believe these people had equal opportunities.

I used to get so fucking bored at my job around 3pm because I would miss the time where I was supposed to be napping/resting after the meal and I get edgy
