Variable/ Compressed Hours of Work Clause Samples

The Variable/Compressed Hours of Work clause defines arrangements where employees work a non-standard schedule, such as varying their daily hours or compressing their standard workweek into fewer days. For example, an employee might work longer hours on certain days to take a day off each week, or adjust their start and end times to accommodate personal needs. This clause provides flexibility for both employer and employee, helping to balance operational requirements with individual preferences, and can improve work-life balance while maintaining overall productivity.

The maximum life of a schedule shall be six (6) months. iii) For day workers, such schedules shall provide that an employee's normal workweek shall average the weekly hours per week specified in this Agreement over the life of the schedule.
