As you all know, due to the global economic crisis there are not enough jobs for everyone and this is causing many people can't support themselves or their families.

Establishing a six-hour working day (30 hours per week) could help people to find a job because more workers would be required to fill the same working hours.

Besides that, this initiative could help to create a more happy society because people would have more time to spend with their family and friends and to do activities they enjoy.

For these reasons, we ask the United Nations to take actions to implement the six-hour workday worldwide.
