Work-Life Balance
TMU's Hours of Work policy provides for a genuine compressed work week: "…it may also be possible to meet the preference of some staff members to work a compressed work week, working full time hours of 36.25 per week in reduced number of (ie. less than 5) days." The policy gives a four-day example — "a four day work week could involve three days of 9 hours and 50 minutes, and one day of 9 hours and 45 minutes."
