With private-sector jobs seemingly becoming more precarious because of ongoing layoffs, alternative work schedules are another perk to government jobs.
The US Office of Personnel Management uses alternative work schedules (AWS) as a joint term for flexible and compressed work schedules.
A flexible work schedule (FWS) consists of core hours and flexible bands.
Under a FWS, an agency may only have core hours from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. with flexible hours from nine to seven.
AdvertisementWhile no job is specifically excluded from working with this model, each government agency decides whether alternate work schedules are a good fit.
