Chetan Bhagat Says Four Focused Work Hours Can Be Enough

Chetan Bhagat says people may not need to spend a very long day at work.

He believes four hours can be enough if those hours are used with full focus.

He does not count meetings, breaks or interruptions as focused work.

He shared this view at a conference in Bengaluru on October 3.

He said people should decide what matters most and give it their attention.

His comments come as people worry that AI could change jobs and workplaces.

Some business leaders have argued that people should work longer hours.

NR Narayana Murthy has called for young Indians to work 70 hours a week.

Bhagat also said people should focus on doing what makes them happy.
