      The relationship between the number of workdays per week and health is not one-size-fits-all, but based on current research, working around 3 to 4 days per week may offer a balance that supports better physical and mental health for many people—especially when paired with reasonable hours and a healthy work environment.

      Key Insights from Research:

      1. Full-time (5+ days/week):
        • Pros: Steady income, structure, social interaction.
        • Cons: Higher risk of stress, burnout, sedentary behavior, and poor work-life balance if not managed well.
      2. Part-time (2–4 days/week):
        • Pros: Lower stress, more time for exercise, sleep, social life, and hobbies—all of which support mental and physical health.
        • Cons: Less income, fewer benefits, possible job insecurity.
      3. Four-day workweek (compressed):
        • Studies from Iceland, Japan, and UK trials found improvements in:
          • Well-being
          • Work-life balance
          • Stress reduction
          • No loss in productivity
      4. Not working (0 days):
        • Involuntary unemployment or forced inactivity often leads to worse mental and physical health outcomes due to stress, loss of identity, and isolation.

      Conclusion:

      • Optimal for health: 3 to 4 days per week, ideally with manageable hours and meaningful work.
      • Four-day workweeks with full-time pay are emerging as a promising model for health and productivity.
      • More important than the number of days is the quality of the work, stress levels, and work-life balance.
