==21st century== In the 21st century, those such as [[Anna Coote]], the head of social policy at the [[New Economics Foundation]] and British sociologist Peter Fleming, among others, have proposed the re-introduction of a three-day work week. The arguments for its re-introduction include a better work-life balance, more family time, improved health and well-being, greater sustainability (such as via reduced carbon emissions), increased work productivity, and a reduction of overwork, unemployment and over-consumption.<ref>{{cite news |last=Schachter |first=Harvey |date=10 February 2012 |title=Save the world with a 3-day work week |url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/careers/management/save-the-world-with-a-3-day-work-week/article545320/ |work=The Globe and Mail |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last=Hart |first=Anna |date=30 August 2016 |title=Why we should all be working a 3-day week (and why it's good for business too) |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/work/why-we-should-all-be-working-a-3-day-week-and-why-its-good-for-b/ |work=The Daily Telegraph |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last=Veal |first=Anthony |date=24 December 2018 |title=It's time to put the 15-hour work week back on the agenda |url=https://theconversation.com/its-time-to-put-the-15-hour-work-week-back-on-the-agenda-106754 |work=The Conversation |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref>
