Job Sharing a 7 Day work week

It is about maximising our assets. Certainly, we should be asking the question why our limited assets such as roads and motorways are underutilised at certain times of the day? Particularly evenings. Yet are clogged during the other 1/2 of the day. Why is it that trucks, in particular container trucks could not be incentivised to transport goods between depots at less busy times?

We need to apply better time management to limited resources. Universities had the right idea starting summer schools. In Europe the school days start earlier so to appease the pressure.

Any business could do this off their own bat if it they decided it was a good idea. The Government doesn’t need to be involved

Linked to the UBI idea and others – share the workload, share the wealth, increase the qty of people feeling like they’re contributing positively to our society (through work) while increasing the ‘leisure/family/creative’ time for others. NZ’ers do in fact work longer hours than in many countries (OECD at least) so a conversation around how to shorten the working week is more than welcome !

However, it could be a good idea for public servants to improve services to the public.

Sorry, you seem to be saying that opening the supermarkets for longer will generate more revenue. I suspect the demand for supermarket goods is finite – as evidenced by a paucity of customers early morning and evenings in those I have visited at unusual hours. The demand is also inflexible as illustrated by the crowds on Saturdays.
