all that will achieve is to reduce productivity and increase companies overheads as they struggle to maintain a level of productivity to remain viable because some nutter banned 12 hour shifts .Many people who work 12 hr shifts rely on the overtime or bonuses achieved by working the extra hours

When we had the three day week production went up, the Country produced more in three days than we had previously done in five, as someone who went through the three day week I found that having more time off resulted in me going into work totally refreshed and able to work twice as hard. I never understood why firms went back to a five day week resulting in higher overheads and lower productivity.
