I think there have been some case studies that show a 6 hour work day or 4 day work week actually increase productivity while reducing stress and increasing happiness.
I don't think the current NA work model is ideal from either an employer or employee perspective, but I don't think most are forward thinking enough to try anything but the status quo.
