Avito Rabota analysts interviewed 10,000 Russians and found out which of the employees currently (73% of respondents) are willing to increase the working week to six days for an additional fee, and which will not agree to this under any circumstances.
The results of the study are given by Izvestia:
- 64% of Russians are willing to work six days a week for a salary increase,
- 29% of them will add one day to the work week for a 10-30% increase in pay,
- 35% will accept it for a 30-50% raise,
- 23% of workers will not switch to a six-day job “under any circumstances” (there are more women among them than men: 27% vs. 19%).
- Already now, in the six-day modality, they work more frequently in the field of education and science (16%), construction and real estate (13%), agriculture (12%), art and entertainment (12%),
- less frequently, in the areas of IT (3%), accounting and finance (3%), logistics services (3%), and housing and community services (2%).
Of those who participated in the survey, 47% of respondents work a full five-day work week (the majority are women), while the rest work more lenient hours.
“Raising wages, unsurprisingly, turned out to be the most popular reason for agreeing to a six-day period. Less than all the study participants were interested in motivation in the form of additional benefits (compensation for travel, food, etc.) – only 13% of them, ”added Avito Rabota.
