[QUOTE="blksn8k, post: 801790, member: 64142"] We have been on a 9/80 work schedule for several years. The company is split up into three "teams", A, B & C. The schedule goes something like this: the A team works nine hours per day, Monday through Thursday of the first week and eight ours on Friday while the B team works four nine hour days and they are off on Friday. During the second week, they switch with the A team working four nine hour days and the B team working four nines and one eight. The pattern repeats every two weeks. This way each team works 80 hours every two weeks and they have off alternating Fridays. If you are non-exempt and you work on your Friday off, you are eligible for time-and-half OT. If a holiday falls on your Friday off, you can take either the preceding Thursday or the following Monday as your 9/80 day off. For example, this year the 4th of July fell on my Friday off so I took Monday off giving me a four day weekend. Yesterday was again my Friday off. ;) The C team works normal eight hour days, five days per week. Obviously, not many people prefer the C team option. With the company split this way there is always at least half the company working on Fridays. Our customers would not likely appreciate a lack of support on Fridays. It's great system and I am surprised more companies have not adopted it. [/QUOTE]
