Some individuals argued that employers have to reduce working hours and they should have a longer holiday. I firmly disagree with that as it not only increases their workload and pressure but also reduce their productivity and economic output.
On the one hand, there are numerous disadvantages of providing a short time work. One major drawback is the pressure of completing work . When working days are reduced employees need to complete their work in a less time, which can create stress, anxiety and mismatch with the work-balance. For example, If some factory members does not come for work then their work will be remained unfinished , which left a huge impact on company labourers to finish their work as soon as they can. As a result , the workload and pressure affect on their mental health and create some harmful disease.
Moreover, another major disadvantage is reduced productivity and economical drawbacks. A shorter working week means employees spend their time less on their wok field. This can reduce the overall productivity and slow business. Many industries rely on their daily work purposes to complete the demands of consumers. To cite an example, in 2019 corona pandemic , a huge amount of companies fell down by the financial crisis, as most employees could not go to the working sectors to complete their work for their own safety reasons. As a consequence, few nations face the economical drawbacks and could not developed as they thought.
In conclusion, Although working five or four or four and half days in a week may bring some benefits , I completely disagree with this as it creates mental pressure and also affects on the economy.
