This is half the story.
It doesn’t mention the loss of people due to work-injury like my wife who was a Licensed Practical Nurse and injured her back/sciatic nerve on the job in 2010. She hasn’t worked since and was denied long term disability benefits because the daily and now chronic pain she has suffered since her injury could not be proven to fit their standard. She may never work a standard job again. The system doesn’t care.

Wish this would get more traction in the USA.

Dozens of U.K. companies will keep the 4-day workweek after a pilot program ends:

"Allowing" someone to take extended unpaid sick leave is NOT, and WILL NEVER BE an example of a reasonable adjustment as part of a return-to-work plan for a staff member who lives with a mental illness

Stipulating that a staff member can *only* return to work if cleared for full duties by their gp, and being unwilling to accept a partial or stepped return to full duties ALSO DOESN'T COUNT AND IS AT BEST SUPER NEGLEGENT!!
