Over the years, the many health problems that have arisen from such a lifestyle has led the government to implement policies to discourage such an unbalanced lifestyle; to varying degrees of success. Japan’s latest attempt to alleviate the issue was finalised last week, with Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga’s Cabinet pushing out a proposal to let employees choose a four-day work week in its annual economic policy guideline. The policy aims to improve the work-life balance for workers who have family care responsibilities or need more time off to acquire new skills. Opinions vary on whether the new policy will address challenges arising from the country’s labour shortage as intended depending on the viewpoints of employers or employees. In general, employers believe that people working only four days a week will lead to a more motivated workforce, but also share concerns regarding a potential loss in productivity. On the other hand, employees are concerned that their pay may be cut due to the reduced number of working hours. The new policy is expected to help people with family-care responsibilities avoid the need to quit their jobs, promote upskilling and re-skilling, and help more people take on side jobs, the government said. The idea of a 4-day work-week might have seemed like anathema a decade ago, but over the years, the concept of a more flexible workplace has gained traction. The ongoing pandemic is also helping work from home policies gain acceptance throughout the world. The ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) in late April recommended the government to take policy measures to facilitate adoption of the system. Working fewer days is expected to promote “diversified working styles” and prompt workers with new skills to move to growing industries such as IT, said the LDP. At a key economic and fiscal policy panel meeting in mid-April where the promotion of a four-day workweek was mooted, Suga said his government would consider expanding support for people willing to enhance their careers through recurrent education without leaving their jobs, according to Kyodo News.

Read More »Putting yourself and your needs first is not selfish. It's something we should all do because we all matter. It's so important to be able to look inward and ask yourself if you are truly happy.
Try to take time and do some things you enjoy. It’s obviously harder to do that now than it was before with limited places to go, but always make time for the things that make you happy. If you are someone that works from home or you’re doing online classes, remember to take a step back. Give yourself a break, especially from computer and phone screens. Even with regular breaks from classes, when you feel like you are starting to spiral, don’t be afraid to ask for help. It can sometimes feel like you are completely alone, but I can assure you that other people are feeling the exact same thing. Making sure you have a good and healthy sleep pattern will benefit you massively because sleep is so important for your mental health. Avoid watching the news before you sleep, and try to create a routine so you go to sleep and wake up at consistent times every day. This will help your overall health, and will give you more motivation and energy.
