▍原文
Thousands of UK workers are starting a four-day week trial from Monday.
Around 70 companies are taking part in what is thought to be the world's biggest pilot scheme into the working pattern over the next six months.
The experiment has been organised by a group campaigning for a shorter working week, but for no loss in wages.
During the trial, employees will get 100% pay for 80% of the hours they would usually work, with the aim of being more productive.
