Hello Cylvia

I would be happy to meet with you if you have the chance to come to Gothenburg. I looked at your web-page at it seemed as that we have shared interests. I’ll enclose two of my publications if you want to have a look.

Best wishes

Jörgen

Thanks for the introduction John and cyber greetings to you Jorgen. I am not yet sure about the Sweden part of my trip but I am open to a visit to Gottenburg if my schedule will allow.

Thanks,

Cylvia

Thanks, Jorgen! I am passing this on to Cylvia and will reach your attachment. I had thought Gothenburg had instituted a general 6-hour work day. Some false reports in the media. But this sounds like a start.

Cylvia, I hope you and Jorgen can connect1 Great to talk with you yesterday...

Hi

 

Great to hear from you again.

 

Please connect me with Cylvia Hayes. Do you know if she is coming to Gothenburg or only to Stockholm (3 hours away by train?).

 

The left party in Gothenburg have managed to initiate a 1 year test with 6-hour workday in one large home for the elderly. It has been big news around the world! I was interviewed in Al jazeera.

 

I will be even more involved in time issues, as I got the enclosed application granted by a Swedish state research funder (500 000 dollars). I have already started with substudy 2 which is to analyze the new staff policy in the City of Gothenburg which is to give all employees the right to choose either full-time or part-time (with subsequent cut in pay).

 

What are you up to these days?

/Jörgen

Hi Jorgen,

How are you? I am hoping to connect you with Cylvia Hayes, the first lady of the State of Oregon, who is coming to Sweden in February. I told her about your work connecting wellbeing, work time and GHG emissions/ecological footprint. I understand Gothenberg has gone to a six hour workday--30 hour week. Is this true and are you still working on this. Can I connect you with Cylvia. She is quite impressive.

all the best,

John
