Tokyo governor hopes 4-day work week will inspire people to grow their families

From Global News.

Tokyo’s governor is introducing a four-day work week in the hopes it will inspire working couples to have more children.

Japan is experiencing record-low births, and it’s expected that shortening the work week will allow for a better work-life balance, giving workers more time to spend with their families.

But the change comes as some countries are moving in the opposite direction.

Amandalina Letterio has more on the new policy, which takes effect in April.
