The Autonomy Institute creates data-driven tools and policy to strengthen democracy and build the future economy. A core part of this work is envisioning and creating a blueprint for the future of work.
At the Working Time Consultancy, we believe that a shorter working week is a key component in building workplaces that are more productive, more inclusive, and better for people.
Founded in 2018, our consultancy was established in response to increasing interest from organisations eager to explore piloting a four-day week, but unsure in how to go about doing it. Drawing on our research expertise, we set out to support organisations on this transformative journey. Since then, we have worked with over a hundred organisations in multiple sectors, helping them adopt shorter working hours and realise their potential for improved productivity, innovation and work-life balance.
About us
We have built a unique depth of experience supporting organisations in the shift to shorter working hours, from private sector businesses, to charities, to the education sector. Combined with our direct access to cutting edge research and policy developments, this makes us the leading provider of working time reduction support. We operate in the UK, Europe, and across the world, and can work in multiple languages.
We recognise that no two workplaces are the same. Engagement with us is tailored and collaborative - we work with organisations to identify the barriers to a shorter working week, exploring practical ways to improve efficiency and productivity, without compromising on your mission and values.
