Workweek

It is a designated period during which employees are expected to fulfil their work responsibilities. It typically consists of five consecutive working days, usually Monday through Friday, although this can vary depending on the country and industry. The concept of a work week is essential for organizations to establish regular working hours and ensure productivity and efficiency in the workplace. The duration of a work week is commonly set at 40 hours, with eight hours per day. However, some countries or industries may have different regulations regarding the maximum working hours per week. For instance, in certain European countries, the standard work week is limited to 35 or 37.5 hours. Defining a work week aims to establish a consistent schedule for employees and employers.
