16.21 Definition: "Workweek" refers to the seven-day period typically used to measure the hours worked by employees and to calculate wages. It is typically used in the context of labor regulations, such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLEA). Generally, a workweek is considered to begin on Sunday and end on the following Saturday, although this may vary in certain cases. There are two types of workweek: the fixed workweek and the fluctuating workweek. The fixed workweek is when an employer establishes a fixed schedule to determine the workweek, while the fluctuating workweek is when an employer's workweek varies depending on the needs of the business.
