Break the Fake II
Hi everyone! so as I was scrolling through google recently, a article popped up about a 4 day week is coming inside the article Joe O’Connor, director of the Work Time Reduction Center of Excellence in Toronto, explains that this week on Down to Business, he also explains why some companies are adopting the four-day workweek . on Financial post by by Gabriel Friedman 3 hours I want to check if this video/news is true or not From there I did some digging.
Here is the article I saw
Here I also found video where Nathan Janzen ASST.CHEIF ECONOMIST ROYAL BANK OF CANADA says about Labour shortages giving workers more bargaining power.
Step 1: I checked the source of this video (who posted this video?)
I wet through twitter and found a news from Narcity Canada saying This Toronto based company is trying out A 4 day work week to invest in employee happiness
Step 2: I checked MSN News (The article website, which included the video) on Wikipedia to see if it’s a reliable source.
I can see that it has been founded in August 24, 1995, and there is no information on it having fake news. The Microsoft Network was initially a subscription-based dial-up online service that later became an Internet service provider named MSN Dial-up. At the same time, the company launched a new web portal named Microsoft Internet Start and set it as the first default home page of Internet Explorer, its web browser. In 1998, Microsoft renamed and moved this web portal to the domain name www.msn.com, where it has remained.
Step 3: I tried to use Snopes.com to fact-check, but since it’s a recent news, it has not been put onto the website yet.
Step 4: I searched on google to see if there are more websites posting about this story.
There are many other websites that are talking about this, and these websites, according to further search with Wikipedia are all trustable websites, so it is most likely that this video and story is true.
So in conclusion, this article of a four day week in Toronto is true. Although the person who posted the article and the video isn’t fully reliable, the video and article is confirmed to be real as MSN News and many reliable websites say that it is happing .
