Over Work : Transforming the Daily Grind in the Quest for a Better Life

Summary: Americans across all demographics, industries, and socioeconomic levels report exhaustion, burnout, and the wish for more meaningful lives. In 'Over Work', Brigid Schulte searches for solutions, exploring the movement to institute a four-day workweek, introducing Japans Housewives Brigade - which demands legal protection for family time - and embedding with CEOs who are making the business case for humane conditions. And she shows that work can be organized in an infinite number of ways that are good for humans and for business. From the author of 'Overwhelmed' (ISBN 9781443410182).
