MAKKAH: Lucidya, an artificial intelligence and customer experience company based in Riyadh, is the first private company in the Kingdom to adopt a four-day workweek.
The strategy keeps full salaries in place and doesn’t add more hours to the workday. It seeks to increase work satisfaction, productivity, and well-being among employees. Abdullah Asiri, Lucidya’s CEO, told Arab News that the choice demonstrated the company’s dedication to encouraging creativity and creating a model work environment.
Our company was among the first to embrace remote work and do away with conventional timekeeping devices. Achievement is more important to us than the number of hours worked. We think that individual success, rather than working hours, determines productivity.
He went on to say that the decision to switch to a four-day workweek has produced noteworthy outcomes. Asiri stated: “Since putting this system in place, we have observed an increase in enthusiasm and task completion, with no decline in performance.
