INteresting article also on one company in Finland reduction of work day from 8 hrs to 6: "One unexpected saving was that time lost due to illness almost disappeared. Tony Carlyle reports that people felt better and their health improved. The same phenomenon was also apparent at the large Finnish tyre producer Nokia, who brought in a six-hour working day. Their staff suddenly stopped taking days off for illness altogether. "

Well, It's a rare day when I'm on-the-ball and productive for a full 8 hours, even with an hour lunch break in the middle. It would be a lot easier to do that for 6 hours a day than 8. :-)
