Who came up with the 40-hr work week?

The Unions in the 1960's in the UK reducing the hours from 46 to 42 to 40 - I know I was an apprentice at the time, paid by the hour so each reduction meant a cut in pay! what a great idea by the union! Can I have another reduction to 20 hours or even less next time Feb 06 03, 1:06 AM
