The hospitality industry has rarely been synonymous with work-life balance. The team at Hector's Deli is determined to be different. The three-store group, known for serving up some of Melbourne’s best sandwiches, recently implemented a four-day work week. The change applies to full-time employees at its three venues in Richmond, Fitzroy and South Melbourne, as well as in its head office. As founder Dom Wilton and CEO Adam Brownell are keen to underscore, this is a permanent change – not a trial. Dom and Adam join us in the studio to discuss the decision.
