Wayne Brittenden's Counterpoint




RNZ: Sunday Morning show

Summary: When it comes to work, the political right has generally championed hard work, while the left calls for more jobs. The old dream of fewer work days, with increased mechanisation and technology, is almost forgotten. Wayne looks at little-reported but very encouraging steps towards three-day weekends. Chris follows up with the man largely responsible for implementing such a scheme in the State of Utah - Associate Professor Rex Facer, and discusses its potential for New Zealand with Lincoln University's Economics Professor Paul Dalziel.
