Catalonia wants to regain hours of “jet-lag”

Catalonia has a kind of “jet lag” compared with timetables in the rest of the world, and the country now wants to regain the two hours it lags behind other areas. As a result, 100 organizations and the Catalan government signed an agreement on Monday to streamline the public timetable by 2025. The Timetable Reform Initiative aims to achieve more reasonable working hours and a better balance between work and family, as well as establishing healthier habits. The initiative wants the country to return to Greenwich Meridian Time (GMT) in five main spheres: employment, education, culture, administration and trade. / Elisenda Rosanas / Helle Kettner
