I was talking about the work week as it is defined by law. Reduce those hours, and your employer won't be allowed to make you work 40 hours any more. Of course it's also time to clean up the exemptions that employers abuse to make people work unpaid overtime, like Walmart classing everyone, including shelf stockers, as "management."

Yes, yet another way in which economic policy is making sure that productivity gains do not end up in the hands of workers. It's unfair and unsustainable, but it's Universally Accepted Dogma in the West, not even the so-called Left is willing to do something about it -- quite the contrary.
