House Bill 2932 would have Oregon plan and implement a four-day workweek for state workers, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.

“The real point of this bill is to look at some alternative ways of doing business in state government,” said [Rep. Paul] Holvey, who’s co-chairman of the House General Government Committee, which heard the bill but took no action Thursday.
