EcoNomics' Quiet Fridays

EcoNomics observes Quiet Fridays. You may have noticed this in our email signatures or heard about it from our team.

WHAT ARE QUIET FRIDAYS?
On two alternating Fridays each month, we don’t expect our team to work, schedule meetings, or send internal emails. Quiet Fridays can be dedicated to personal time or uninterrupted "deep focus" work—it’s entirely up to the individual. Whether it’s recharging with some downtime, spending time with family, catching up on ‘human admin,’ or simply relaxing, we leave the day's activities up to the employee. And if someone feels like working, that’s perfectly fine too! We remain fully committed to the priorities of our clients and partners during this time. We have found that since instituting Quiet Fridays, productivity has slightly increased.

WHY WE HAVE QUIET FRIDAYS
Originally a flexible work experiment, Quiet Fridays quickly became a valued part of our team’s routine. This practice reflects our commitment to balancing productivity with personal well-being. The idea originated from our friends at Stok Consulting.
