#69: Are unlimited holiday allowances and a 4 day working week the new normal?
The ladies discuss whether more companies should offer employees unlimited holiday as a standard benefit and if a better work-life balance could be achieved through a four day working week, after a Taiwanese man marries and divorces the same woman several times in the space of a few weeks to take advantage of Taiwan’s 8 day paid marriage leave policy.
