How did we get the right to a weekend?
Manage episode 438993535 series 2878060
77 years ago, a landmark court ruling introduced the 40-hour work week. The 1947 decision led to the five-day working week and two-day weekend we know today. Before that, employees were typically expected to work six days a week. Over seven decades later, the landscape has changed dramatically, and there are now conversations about extending the weekend by a day.
Hosts: Harry Sekulich and Zara Seidler
Producer: Orla Maher
