Quincy public works to experiment with four-day week

QUINCY — Quincy public works employees will be experimenting with a four-day work week this summer, one of the provisions in a new contract between the city and the union representing public works. The new contract, which replaces the existing contract, was approved by Quincy City Council members Tuesday by a 5-0 vote. Union members had ratified it earlier. The contract will be in effect for four years.
