The idea of a 32-hour workweek has been gaining popularity for a while now, giving employees the opportunity to regularly enjoy a three-day weekend.

There have been some movements nationwide to make the switch, such as the recent announcement by Washington’s San Juan County that it is moving to a 32-hour workweek. In 2021, California representative Mark Takano introduced the Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act to Congress, but it stalled in the House Committee on Education and Labor.
