Petition Action

Make the weekend 3 days long

Petition Details

In 2017/18, 595,000 people suffered from work-related stress, depression, or anxiety. The weekend is viewed as sacred by not just these people, but the rest of the population. An extra day during the week-end would help suppress these issues and increase the overall happiness in the country.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We understand that you would like the standard working week to be four days but we aren't sure what action you want the UK Government or Parliament to take to make it happen.

You could start a new petition asking for a new legal maximium for the number of hours worked in a week if that is something you would like to see happen.
