Finland’s new prime minister has called for a four day working week, arguing that the change would let people spend more time with their families.

Sanna Marin, a social democrat, who took office in December, leads a broad coalition that also includes greens, leftists and centrists.

“I believe people deserve to spend more time with their families, loved ones, hobbies and other aspects of life, such as culture,” she said.

“This could be the next step for us in working life.”

Ms Marin, who is the world’s youngest serving national leader, also said the standard working day should be reduced to six hours, down from the current eight.
