Finland plans to work four days a week to make employees more efficient

Original title: Finland's youngest prime minister: plans to launch a 6-hour working week, 4 days a week

Sanna Marin, 34, the world's youngest prime minister and Finland's youngest prime minister, has called for a more flexible working system in the country, including working four days a week and six hours a day, the Daily Mail reported on the 5th.

Malin, who served as prime minister during the strike in Finland (December 8 last year), hopes that the Finnish people will have more time to accompany their families. "I believe that people are worth spending more time with their families and lovers, and more time pursuing their hobbies and other aspects of life, such as culture. '

"This may be the next step in our work life," Marlin continued.

At present, Finland implements a working system of five days a week and eight hours a day. Sweden, Finland's neighbor, began working six hours a day in 2015, according to the report. The survey shows that the new working system makes employees happier, richer and more efficient. Last year, Microsoft also carried out a 'bold' work system adjustment in Japan, providing three days' weekend 'for employees. The results show that the work efficiency of employees has increased by 39.9%.

On December 8, 2019, Malin was elected as Finland's new prime minister, and she took office just as Finland was on strike.

In late November last year, more than 9000 employees of the Finnish postal industry went on strike for two weeks. During the second round of strike, the middle party of the Finnish coalition government said that it had lost confidence in former Prime Minister andI & middot; Lynne, who had been in office for only six months, resigned. Finland launched a new round of wage negotiations for about 100000 employees in September.

Less than one month after he took office, he proposed to implement a new working system. Before Malin became prime minister, when she was still Finland's minister of transport, she called for shortening working hours to improve staff relations and work efficiency.

This time, Prime Minister Marin's proposal was strongly supported by Li Andersson, Finland's minister of education and leader of the Left Wing Alliance. She said: 'it's important for the Finnish people to work less. It's not a matter of being in power in a feminine style, it's a matter of helping (the people) and keeping promises to voters. '

It is worth noting that the other four political parties in the Finnish coalition government are also led by women, and the female leaders of three of them, the left wing coalition, the Green coalition and the middle party, are very young and under the age of 35.

When Ma Lin took office, he publicly said that he never thought about his gender and age, but only thought about his original intention to enter the political arena and how to win the support of voters.
