Is a 4 Day Week for All Employees the Way Forward?
Very interesting feedback coming from the 70 businesses that are part of a 6-month trial where all employees get 100% pay for 80% of normal hours worked.
Key findings at halfway stage:
– 86% plan to keep 4 day week at end of trial
– 95% said that productivity had stayed the same or improved
– substantial cost of living benefits due to reduction in commuting and childcare costs

As a way of attracting candidates to join a business it is immense.
It will be interesting to see if the business views remain the same at the end of the full trial.

Step 2: Crafting a Compelling Job Advert
We create job adverts that do more than just list duties; they highlight your employer brand, organisational culture, and future prospects. This approach attracts candidates genuinely interested in your company and the job.
 
Step 3: Maximising Candidate Reach
We employ a dual strategy to reach the best candidates:
Proactive Candidate Search (63% of successful placements): Utilising advanced AI software across multiple online databases and our own TRBtalentpool© maximises the number of suitable candidates that are aware of your role.

Step 5: Managing the Job Offer Process
We handle the job offer stage with great care to minimise risks such as counteroffers and offer rejections. By staying on top of all potential issues, we maximise the chances of offer acceptance.
 
Commitment to Outstanding Communication
Aligned with our customer-centric philosophy, we maintain a robust candidate and client communication strategy.
