Description

Explore a foundational study on labor economics and organizational efficiency with The Shorter Working Week. This Routledge Library Edition provides a detailed look at the historical inquiry led by the International Association for Social Progress in 1931. The text examines the direct relationship between shorter working hours, unemployment rates, and overall productivity levels. Originally published in 1934, this work presents an analysis based on the author's private research into the two-shift system. It serves as a significant historical resource for those studying the evolution of labor practices.
