Government Maintains Current Work Policies Amid Four-Day Week Speculation

Attorney General and Minister for Labour, Hon. Sir Steadroy Benjamin, has firmly dismissed rumors regarding a government proposal for a four-day work week, clarifying that no such policy is being considered.

Attorney General Sir Steadroy Benjamin addresses rumors of a four-day work week.

The idea, initially brought forward by Ralph Potter, President of The People’s Union, aimed to enhance work-life balance. However, Sir Steadroy confirmed that there has been no Cabinet discussion on the matter, and the government has not endorsed any shift to a shorter work week.

“While some experts, including Labour Commissioner Eltonia Anthony Rojas, see potential benefits, this concept has not been officially entertained,” he stated, addressing concerns from both employers and employees.

Sir Steadroy reassured the public, saying, “Let not your heart be troubled—this is not part of the Government’s agenda.” He emphasized that the focus remains on current labour policies rather than drastic changes to work schedules.
