The Spanish government is considering the introduction of a four-day week in a bid to create more jobs, improve health and increase productivity. Deputy prime minister Pablo Iglesias Turrión said a cut in working hours, without loss of pay would “undoubtedly” lead to the expansion of employment opportunities.
