Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy Advocate for 5-Day Office Week for Federal Workers: NDTV

In a bold move that could set a new precedent for office work in the United States, tech mogul Elon Musk and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy are advocating for a return to the traditional 5-day office week for federal workers.

Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, and Ramaswamy, the founder of Roivant Sciences, believe that the shift to remote work during the pandemic has negatively impacted productivity and innovation. They argue that face-to-face collaboration and communication are essential for driving progress and achieving breakthroughs in various fields.

The duo has been vocal about their views on social media, with Musk tweeting, “Innovation comes from people working together in person,” and Ramaswamy echoing similar sentiments in a recent interview with NDTV.

Their proposal has sparked a heated debate among policymakers, with some supporting the idea of a return to the traditional office setting, while others argue that remote work offers flexibility and work-life balance for employees.

As discussions continue, it remains to be seen whether Musk and Ramaswamy’s vision for a 5-day office week will gain traction among federal workers and influence future workplace policies in the country. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
