    1 – 9x80 : A 9 / 80 work schedule is a type of compressed workweek that allows employees to work nine hours per day for eight days and eight hours on one day over the course of two weeks, with one day off every other week. This results in employees working 80 hours across nine days instead of the traditional ten days in a two-week period. The off day usually occurs every other Friday, giving employees a three-day weekend. This schedule can be beneficial for work-life balance, as it provides employees with an extra day off without affecting their full-time status or pay.
