| Résumé: | Could work-sharing solve the problems of unemployment, inequality and global warming, and yet produce a happier world? This literature review takes a multidisciplinary view of the problem. It finds that theoretically work-sharing can do all these things, but the existing evidence of its performance is debatable and there are hesitations from industry and managers to implement it. Several policy suggestions are highlighted, and future directions are provided for researchers from different disciplines. The importance of this work has been reinforced by the COVID crisis, with millions of people losing their jobs and technical unemployment increasing, indicating that our system is fragile.
