The supposed move to a four day week has been much trailed and many a firm in many an industry has experimented with it. It’s become a thing since the Covid WFH (working-from-home) revolution and more than a few companies have adopted it and have, apparently, very happy workers as a result and not drop, in the magic word, productivity. You’ll no doubt have read, though, of many others, including the Gothic Maga’s ‘X’, who have insisted that staff get back to the office. It is, of course, a privileged, first world argument. If you’re working on the frontline in a care home or restaurant kitchen for(albeit now increasing) minimum wage, neither WFH nor 4 days are likely options. As many will know, we have always worked remotely at PJFS, and putting us together in an office for even 30 hours a week could be the end of all as we know it. I’ve always said that those who take the proverbial at home would do the same in the office. And I’m still working on getting down to six days a week.

Our mantra has long been ’straightforward advice that you can understand’. That can mean trying to simplify the many complex products and options with which the world of finance tries to befuddle its target audience.
