A Shorter Working Day is a book written by Robert Abbott Hadfield in 1892. The book is a treatise on the benefits of reducing the working hours of laborers. Hadfield argues that shorter working hours would not only benefit the workers by giving them more time for leisure and personal pursuits but would also lead to increased productivity, improved health, and better social conditions. The book presents a detailed analysis of the economic and social implications of reducing the working day, drawing on examples from various industries and countries. Hadfield also explores the history of the labor movement and the struggles of workers to secure better working conditions. Overall, A Shorter Working Day is a seminal work that continues to be relevant today in the ongoing debates about work-life balance and the rights of workers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
