An agency may approve a flexible work schedule that has an 8-hour daily basic work requirement but allows work to be performed during flexible time bands (e.g., 6:00 am and 10:00 p.m.) during periods chosen by the employee, except that the employee must work during designated core hours. An agency could establish a flexible time band that covers the entire day. In determining flexible time bands, an agency should consider the effects - positive and negative - on the accomplishment of the agency mission.
