A four-day workweek sounds appealing to workers. Possibly alarming to employers. Abill introduced in the California legislature earlier this year proposed a regular pay rate for 32 hours ‘of work per week, with overtime kicking in after that. The measure stalled in committee fora lack of broad support but could resurface in 2023. Meanwhile, 4 Day Week Global, a nonprofit foundation associated with Oxford University, is piloting a six month trial of a four-day workweek “with no loss of pay for employees.’ More than three dozen companies in the U.S. and Canada are participating in the experiment, with a total of 150 organizations and 7,000 employees involved worldwide. 39OCMC Men nee ones) by research firm Qualtrics in January, 92% said OME t nti ie ory A eee ge et help mental health, and 82% said it would make entered ice at Neu eu Cen ee THE CHANGE CAN BE CHALLENGING Gere cuteness a as See ue Uren aie Tn Lele eek tGoutrelot LT LeU PSone test ea eet workplace well-being.

And if a company offers to pay for only CO eer La cts a shorter workweek might be the result ofa company trying to reduce expenses. CONSIDERING THE TRADE-OFFS “I think there isa lot of work and research that an organization has to do before it pulls the trigger on this’ Granger says. ry)A four-day workweek — or other workplace flexibility — might begin with a series of discussions. ifthereis interest on both sides of the payroll, Granger suggests a trade-off analysis: “Look statistically at the factors that people would be willing to trade off, and wouldit be worth it to them?" Ifinterest remains strong, the organization could runa pilot program with a small group of employees before a wider rollout. Ifa four-day workweekisn't in your near future, Belanger offers these ideas for employees to possibly seek — and employers to consider: — Occasional extended weekends off. Belanger says this allows time away without the stressful “workis piling up while 'm away" feeling during longer vacations —Ameeting-free Friday or a reduction in the number of meetings overall — Email, instant messaging or texting hiatuses. “Telepressure’— the compulsion to quickly respond to work-related messages of any kind — isa real thing, Belanger says. “You need a couple of hours every single day where you're wholly not working — 100% not working’ for mental health, she adds.ClearVPN The only VPN you'll ever need Get ClearVPNPHONE ACCESSORY A971: he SO ae Light flthebox com One World, One MarketLITHUANIAN CROWDFUNDING DRIVE | GETS UKRAINE AN ARMEDErrun ee Te eC) eure ee re eure OW a ce a rece tt Roa fee haat Cet raised nearly 6 million euros ($6.1 million) for Pe tea a Ces SR eee ec ee Cee eo AU Ee CO CCE Re cen ae A eRe Racer CRMC ec used to arm the drone, and the rest will be Geen cr aekOe re eet Caer arcu a Cm Cod Eee e epoca RUT Rel mee No in the country earlier this week, to the public at allocal air base. eke ea URS RS Oe a Cae ALO ETT Dee ce ecg esa Se ee a COL en ccs er aR RC ares) Pare Reda uence se lutte ee eM eS ee thousands of citizens chipped in.

Sure, dedicated iPadOS functionality has given Apple an edge, but it's true that consumers and professionals have felt that the operating system has become alittle stale in recent years, and wanted more depth and functionality to make iPad a genuine alternative toa computer. Stage Manager is, without doubt, one of the most important features announced at this year's WWDC, designed to change the way users multitask on the iPad. It presents sets of up to four apps per group in a system- managed tile formation and allows users to quickly swap between working on one project to another, and vice versa. It’s the successor to Spaces on the Mac (the feature will also be coming to macOS Ventura later this year) and could revolutionize the way users work from their iPads. Rather than endlessly tapping back and forth between apps, Center Stage is a unique workspace management approach that was designed for the Mac and iPad - but there's a catch when it comes to using the feature. Stange Manager will only be available to users with an iPad Pro or iPad Air with an M1 chip. According to Apple, Stage Manager is exclusive to M1 chips because of iPadOS 16's fast memory swap feature — something Stage Manager relies on quite heavily. Similar to what we've seen on Android devices, this process allows apps to convert storage into RAM for more horsepower. Stage Manager allows users to run 83Weather app Stage N © undosend (% in Mail BD vers nese © in Messages Reference mode Edit a sent message 38 Live Captions in FaceTime Collaboration in Messages Passkeys Va!

What's more, it's now possible to begin SharePlay sessions via Messages, allowing users to watch movies or work out together. INTRODUCING THE FREEFORM APP. Apple is keen to take collaboration on the iPad to the next level and dearly understands the importance and value ofits professional userbase. Freeform is the answer:its anew app witha flexible canvas that's designed to help users see, share and collaborate in real-time from one place, without needing to worry, about layouts, page sizes, and compatibility on different devices. Freeform works with Apple Pencil andallows users to quickly see others contributions asthey add content or make edits, Users can even start Freeform Sessions, where they can joina FaceTime call,or see updates from other usersin the Messages thread. Mouse cursorsare visible to all participants by default, which indicatesin real- time where other users are focused, and it's possible totapa usericon to quickly jump to what they're working on.The too! will compete with numerous collaborative whiteboard apps such as Mural and Miro.By offering both realtimeand asynchronous collaboration, the tool could play an important rolein helping teams to innovate, brainstorm and co-create when they're notable to be together in person, and thanks to its cross-platform nature, itl no doubt go down well-especially considering whiteboards can be viewed and edited on mac0S, too. 90@ ® o & @ © oo alae Food =o f © ‘Oo rec cca 4 ce ow?

INCREDIBLE UNDER-THE-HOOD FEATURES The truth is that Apple has introduced hundreds of new features on this year's iPadOS 16 updates, and developers are still discovering new ones as they delve deeper into the early betas. Dictation, for example, offers users the ability to move between voice, touch, and Scribble with Apple Pencil, whilst Siri will now automatically run shortcuts from apps, with no setup required. The Home app for iPad has been refreshed with an all-new design and the ability to pin smart home devices to the top of the page, whilst Apple News add My Sports so that users can follow their favorite teams, leagues, and athletes. The Notes app has been updated to help users create neater handwritten notes, and it’s possible to use an iCloud password to lock content. Handoff on FaceTime allows users to starta call on one of their Apple devices and continue it on another, whilst Apple has added Live Captions in FaceTime for the first time, as well as a new Magnifier mode and support for 20 additional languages in VoiceOver and Spoken Content; some truly valuable accessibility improvements. Apple has also teased a redesigned Game Center coming later this year to better accommodate the new Apple Arcade subscription service and make it easier to play games over SharePlay. 99ae 4% oe The developer ee of iPadOs 16 is available im : side and the full rollout is expected this September, alont new iPads.

Users will be able to activate and deactivate lockdown mode at will, The growing use of encrypted communications through phone apps like WhatsApp and Signal have prompted governments to turn to commercial spyware vendors to gather information on targets. Such mobile phone spyware vacuums up text messages, emails and photos while secretly controlling a smartphone’s microphones and cameras. Some of the more advanced tools can infect a phone using so-called "zero click” exploits that don't depend on the user inadvertently activating them, such as by clicking on a malicious link. Google, whose Android mobile phone platform is used by iPhone competitors, has also been targeted by commercial spyware vendors. The company’s Threat Analysis Group says it’s tracking more than 30 such companies and routinely publishes reports on exploits used to hack into phones, making them far less effective. Google also offers an “Advanced Protection Program’ that uses a special security key hardware to make user accounts harder to hack. The company said it strongly recommends the program for‘journalists, activists, business executives, and people involved in elections” Separately, Apple also provided more details about a $10 million grant it pledged last November to help counter large-scale hacking attacks.
