MSJC 4/10s Cost Analysis
Objective of study:
• To determine the benefits and the savings of implementing
a 4-day 10 hour work week at MSJC for non-faculty full time
permanent employees
While all parties benefit from lower levels of Carbon Dioxide
Emissions (CO2), the specific benefits by category include:
• Local Community/Environment – decreased traffic
• Employees – decreased transportation cost and
– increase number of 3 day weekends
• MSJC District – decreased utility cost

(4) Based on an average cost of $.125/mile to operate a vehicle (excluding gas) & IRS/AAA average estimate of 15,000 miles a year (26.2 x .125 + gas)
(5) Over a 12 month period no mileage will be substituted for the reduction in mileage driven to MSJC as a result of a ‘4/10s program’
(6) Annual data based on 37 five day work weeks (assumes an average of 3 weeks vacation per employee and a total of 12 weeks with
four or less work days (calculation of 37 weeks = 52 total wks – 3 vacation wks – 12 wks with four or less work days)

4/10 Issues to address
1.
Utility cost savings appear to occur when the electric system for
the entire or section of the building can be shut off or lowered
2.
Telecommuting is a realistic option for administrators.
U.S. GSA survey (863 respondents) reported:
88% less stress
77% more energy
60% increased in job performance
3.
Computer hardware for administrators to telecommute
4.
