Everything you need to know about 4-day week jobs

Every listing on this page is on a schedule that genuinely CUTS weekly working hours — a 4-day week, a 9-day fortnight, half-day Fridays, rotating four-day weeks, or summer Fridays. We currently list 3247 reduced-hours roles, at employers including Parsons Corporation, L3Harris Technologies, and Ubisoft Montreal. That's a deliberately strict bar: a job doesn't qualify just because the employer calls itself flexible. If the working week is still a standard full week, it belongs on a different page.

Because neither reduces your hours. A compressed week packs the same ~40 hours into four longer days — a 3-day weekend, but no time given back — and unlimited or generous PTO is a leave policy sitting on top of a full week. Both are genuinely worth having, and we list them: browse the compressed-week and unlimited-PTO pages for those. This page is reserved for arrangements where the total hours actually come down, so the two aren't conflated.

Usually no, and the schedule badge always tells you which. The 4-day week, 9-day fortnight, half-day Fridays, rotating four-day week and summer Fridays roles are listed here only because the employer publicly committed to holding pay flat when the hours came down — that commitment is the criterion for inclusion. The one clearly-marked exception is the 4-day week advertised at 80% (pro-rata), labelled as such on the listing and in its badge. Nothing on this page hides a pay cut behind a schedule name.

Software and technology lead by a wide margin, followed by consulting, marketing agencies, product organisations, and a growing tail of professional-services and healthcare employers. Companies hiring on this page include Parsons Corporation, L3Harris Technologies, and Ubisoft Montreal. Adoption keeps broadening as published pilot results accumulate — the UK 4 Day Week trial saw 92% of participating companies continue afterwards, with revenue flat or improved. Filter by category in the sidebar to see the mix in your own field.

Use the Remote filter in the sidebar — it narrows this list to roles the employer has publicly committed to hiring remotely, rather than ones that merely allow occasional work-from-home days. Combining the two is the strongest position a candidate can be in: fewer working hours and no commute. If location freedom matters more than the specific schedule, the work-from-anywhere page lists roles with no country or timezone restriction at all.
