Freedom Network USA is excited to announce the implementation of a four-day work week trial beginning June 1, 2025. As an organization committed to creating a workplace that is equitable, people-first, and promotes intentional productivity, we are taking this step to enhance the well-being of our dedicated team while maintaining our commitment to excellence in serving our members and communities.
Why We’re Making This Change
Our work often involves significant energy and emotional labor. We recognize the importance of rest and renewal in preventing burnout and sustaining our commitment to this challenging work. By testing a four-day work week, we aim to:
- Prioritize the well-being of our team, many of whom are caregivers and who represent the communities we serve
- Challenge traditional work assumptions by focusing on outputs over hours
- Support a healthy work-life balance, reducing burnout, anxiety, and fatigue
- Create a culture of abundance that recognizes our team’s well-being as essential to our success
What This Means for our Partners
Beginning June 1, 2025, our team will be offline on Fridays. Our operating hours, Monday through Thursday, will remain unchanged. We are implementing this change thoughtfully to ensure we continue to provide the same high level of service and responsiveness our partners and members have come to expect.
We welcome your feedback throughout this trial period as we evaluate the impact of this transition. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us at info@freedomnetworkusa.org
