Our Aim

We aim to assist organisations, individuals and governments in revolutionising the traditional workweek by promoting a healthier, more balanced approach to work.

A reduced hours workweek enhances productivity, improves employee well-being, and fosters a better work-life balance. Employees can enjoy more time for rest, family, and personal pursuits by working fewer hours, leading to increased job satisfaction and loyalty.

Our goal is to drive innovation in work practices, creating a more sustainable and productive work environment for everyone in Australia.
