A major characteristic of a compressed workweek is that employees work within fewer number of days while still maintaining the same number of working hours. For example, a 5-day workweek with 8 hours of work can be compressed into 4 days with each day having 10 working hours. In this way, there will be an additional non-working day for the employees.
