We must be thinking about how we get to a George Jetson work week.

There are so many industries or facilities where a four-day week seems not applicable. Nevertheless I think alternative working time models it should be considered much more among all employers.

We average two lost devices per week, which seems low, but executive management is concerned and wants to know if our numbers are typical compared to other companies. My questions are: 1. Do other companies also struggle with lost or stolen devices? 2. What is the average number of lost devices per week? 3. Are there repercussions for associates who lose devices due to carelessness or negligence?
