Comment on Major 4-day workweek study suggests that when we work 5 days we spend one doing basically nothing
boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 year agoThose are the first jobs we need to change into 4 hours for 3 days shifts or something. It’s dangerous for everyone to work without sufficient recovery

Exactly. I definitely would not want a nurse or a doctor to operate on me when there on the last stretches of a 12 hour shift, running on 5 hours of sleep. The only question I ask any doctor, nurse or dentist before they start any procedure on me is “how many hours of sleep did you get last night”… Anything less than 6-7 hours puts me in more risk than I’d accept!

Even truck drivers etc. have mandatory work:rest-ratios. It should be a norm
