Flex Scheduling or Flex Time Definition

This alternative work arrangement, flexible scheduling,  allows an employee to work a non-traditional schedule to meet personal needs.  Generally, a flexible schedule is agreed to and worked for a period of time.  Some employers do, however, allow employees to shift schedules daily as personal needs require.  Several kinds of Flex-Time arrangements are popular including:

  • Compressed Work Week: employee works a full time job in less than 5 working days.  An example is 4 ten hour days.
  • Core Hours Schedule: An employer defines core work hours (10:00 AM to 3:00 PM for example) during which employees must be at work.  Each individual can then pick an arrival and departure time, for a total of 8 hours of work per day, which meets his or her needs and includes the core hours.  For instance, one employee may choose to start the day at 6:30 AM and leave at 3:00 PM (allowing 1/2 hour for lunch), while another may prefer to start at 10:00 AM and leave at 6:30.
  • Adjusted Lunch Period: An employee may choose to take time off in the middle of the day to work out or run errands and then adjust the start or leave time accordingly.  For instance, an employee starts the day at 8:00 AM and then is off from 11-1 to go to the gym.  The normal work day would then end at 6:00 PM.
