The Future Of Workday Schedules
by Rachael Evans
Did you know that before 1908, a workday
could last up to 16 hours in the summer?
Sure, people would have long rest periods
in-between seasons, but the work was
brutal. Come 1908, things started to
change when one particular American
factory first introduced a five-day
workweek to accommodate its Jewish
workers. That’s how the two-day weekend
we all know came to be. Then in 1926,
Henry Ford implemented the first 40-hour
workweek to give his factory workers more
freedom.
