In this transition we need to re-organise our working habits and patterns to encourage maximum access and flexibility. This simple modification to our routine would enable many more people to work. This enables four people to work where previously there was three. The free time could then be utilised for education, leisure, recreation, domesticities, children, hobbies etc. People could choose morning or afternoon shifts according to their natural diurnal pattern.
Some people work better in the mornings, some work better later in the day.
Shifts enable flexibility for students, training, parents and those not needing or wanting to work full-time. Social values of community involvement, sharing of resources and opportunities for experience are enhanced. This proposal encourages notions of sharing, equal opportunity and development of skills. It is a relatively small modification but a realistic and practical step in this transition period. Barry Jones Hon.B .
