One day of employment a week is all we need for mental health benefits

Latest research finds up to eight hours of paid work a week significantly boosts mental health and life satisfaction.

They argue the findings show some paid work for the entire adult population is important, but rise of automation may require shorter hours for all so work can be redistributed.
