Thousands of UK workers are starting a four-day work week from Monday with no cut to their pay, in the largest trial of its kind. The test, which will last for six months, involves 3,300 workers spanning 70 companies, ranging from providers of financial services to a fish-and-chip restaurant.

从本周一开始，数千名英国员工将在不减薪的条件下开始试行一周工作四天，这是史上最大规模的同类试点。这次试验将持续6个月，涵盖从金融服务提供商到炸鱼薯条餐厅等70家公司的3300名员工。

During the program, workers receive 100% of their pay for working only 80% of their usual week, in exchange for promising to maintain 100% of their productivity.
在这一项目中，员工每周的工作时间只有往常的80%，但是收入还是和原来一样，条件是承诺保持劳动效率不变。

The program is being run by not-for-profit 4 Day Week Global, the think tank Autonomy, and the 4 Day Week UK Campaign, in partnership with researchers from Cambridge University, Oxford University and Boston College.
该项目是由非盈利机构“全球四天工作制”、智囊团 Autonomy、英国四天工作制运动团与剑桥大学、牛津大学和波士顿学院的研究人员合作运营的。
