Scotland announced plans to trial a four-day work week, making it the latest nation to join the trend as more others explore the possibility of a permanent switch. Workers will see hours reduced by 20% without any impact to wages, Forbes reported.
蘇格蘭宣布計畫試行每週工作四天，讓蘇格蘭成為最新加入這個趨勢的國家，有越來越多國家在探索永久轉換的可能性。根據富比士報導，在不影響工資下，勞工的工作時間將減少20%。
The Scottish National Party (SNP) is making good on a campaign promise to try and reduce worker hours in a bid to boost productivity and worker happiness. Spain, New Zealand, Japan and Iceland have previously adopted a four-day work week – experience that Scotland will draw on as it implements its own trial.
蘇格蘭民族黨(SNP)正在兌現競選承諾，嘗試減少工時來提高生產力和勞工幸福感。西班牙、紐西蘭、日本和冰島先前都採用每週工作四天-蘇格蘭將在實施自己的實驗時借鑑此一經驗。
A poll conducted by Scottish think tank the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) found that 83% respondents preferred to work for fewer days than they do now. For employers? It's maybe not so attractive.
蘇格蘭智庫公共政策研究所(IPPR)，進行的一項民意調查發現，83%的受訪者傾向於比現在更少的工作天數。至於雇主呢?可能沒這麼吸引人。
Rachel Statham, senior researcher at IPPR, explained that trials needed to be expanded and held in different sectors such as retail, tech, and hospitality to see how each coped with it. Expansion of the shorter work week should also be studied in different job markets such as the police, health workers, and those running on longer shifts.
IPPR資深研究員Rachel Statham解釋，試驗也要在零售、科技和接待服務產業等不同領域擴大和展開，來了解每個領域如何應對。並且應該就不同的就業市場，如警察、醫療工作者和輪班時間較長的人，研究縮短每週工作時間。
The shift to fewer hours supposedly boasts a number of benefits, including increased productivity, great sense of value and overall better attitude among workers.
減少工作時間據說會帶來許多好處，包含提高生產力、強烈的價值觀和員工整體上更好的態度。
