Nine Day Fortnight Sample Clauses

The Nine Day Fortnight clause establishes a work schedule where employees work their standard hours over nine days instead of ten, typically resulting in one day off every two weeks. In practice, this might mean employees work slightly longer hours each day to accumulate enough time for the extra day off, which is often scheduled as a regular weekday. The core function of this clause is to provide greater flexibility and work-life balance for employees while maintaining overall productivity for the employer.
