Bienstock Appears on Scripps News

February 23, 2023

Employment and labor law expert Joshua Bienstock, L.L.M., J.D., associate professor in the School of Management, was featured in a national news segment for Scripps News, which discussed proposed legislation in Maryland that would incentivize employers to adopt a four-day workweek. The story notes that the new trend could become a way to keep people in their jobs longer and work fewer hours without losing pay.

“The four-day workweek, to me, is essential to us to accommodate this evolving employee of 2023. The idea of giving employees the option of a four-day workweek instead of a five-day workweek may appeal to a lot of employees in the sense that it will reduce the number of days they have to commute. It will help them balance their ever-colliding home-work lives,” said Bienstock.
