This Chick-fil-A owner and operator has been deluged with applications after switching his staff to a three-day, 14-hour workweek
Justin Lindsey was looking for a novel way to reward workers who were “literally working 70 hours a week, week in and week out,” he recently told QSR magazine. The popular franchise was profitable and sales were robust but that was coming at the expense of staff burnout. So, early this year, Lindsey cooked up a new recipe for success: overhauling weekly schedules.
Although the majority of companies have been reluctant to change, some firms, and even some bosses, have urged flexibility as a way to entice and retain workers by offering them a better work-life balance. In his restaurant’s case, Lindsey said the three-day workweek allows his staff to plan lives outside of work in advance. “I think people want to work in this industry,” Lindsey said in the report.
