Depends what's called a full week anymore.
Decades ago full time working was anything of 40/45 hours a week.

Now it's barely 30.

I don't see anything too difficult to re-arrange working procedures to 4 days instead of 5.
In fact the council in my area.
You can't get them past 1pm on a Friday.
Plus council workers in the area are finished by 2pm too.

So they're almost down to 4 and a half day week almost now.
Obviously any care aspects of council duty will likely need to be exempt.

However it overall makes sense I'd say.
