EUGENE, OR (March 23, 2023) — OCCU is among one of the first U.S. credit unions to engage in a pilot program to test the benefits of a four-day, 32-hour workweek with its inbound call center team. The four-day workweek has been gaining momentum in other industries and countries, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, with organizations using output as a more accurate productivity benchmark than hours logged. The OCCU pilot will consist of four eight-hour shifts, with team members being compensated at a rate equivalent to what they would have been paid for five eight-hour shifts.
