12 Remote and Flexible Companies With a 4-Day Workweek

When you think of a full-time role, you likely think of working 40 hours per week — eight hours a day, five days a week to be exact. And it’s understandable, since this work schedule has been the gold standard for about 100 years!

But times are changing. Between the pandemic, the desire for more work-life balance, and the need for more flexibility, employers and employees are rethinking what “full-time work” really means and embracing four-day workweeks.

The Fair Labor Standards Act does not define what full or part-time employment is, explicitly stating, “This is a matter generally to be determined by the employer.”

The 40-hour workweek may be on its way out, though. Here’s why, and who is leading the charge.

From Weakest Link to Strongest Defense: Building a Human-Centric Cybersecurity Approach

There's a contradiction in cybersecurity: humans can be both the weakest link and the strongest. For instance, humans are highly susceptible to deception. This is an age-old problem; look no further than the Trojan Horse of Greek lore or the Ghost Army of World War II. In the latter case, Allied forces created inflatable tanks and faked radio traffic, among other deceptive tactics across Europe, to confuse, distract and divert enemy forces and sa...
