Salaries and job expectations stay the same in pilot project that runs until Sept. 1

Midway into Ilitaqsiniq’s four-day workweek pilot project, the results look positive, says executive director Adriana Kusugak.

“I would say, across the board, there have been improvements in all the areas we are researching,” she said.

Ilitaqsiniq, also known as the Nunavut Literacy Council, is a non-profit agency that delivers cultural programming across the territory.

From May 8 until Sept. 1, it’s running a pilot project that has seen all of its staff move to a four-day workweek, mostly working Monday to Thursday.
