Ever wish for a 4-day work week? With compressed work weeks, you can commute fewer days and still meet a 40-hour work week requirement. Work a 4/40 work schedule (4 days a week, 40 hours a week, 10 hours per day), or ask your employer to consider a 9/80 schedule, where you work 80 hours over each 2-week period, but only work 9 of the 10 days.
With this scheduling, your employer may be able to extend business hours, providing better customer service while saving you money on commuting costs.
Compressed work weeks are an invaluable tool for achieving a work/life balance. Doctor visits, care for children/elderly family members, volunteer and civic involvement can all become easier for you. With a compressed work week, you have extra time to handle those responsibilities.
We can help you demonstrate to your employer all the advantages of these alternate work arrangements.
