According to our current labor related regulation, employees are supposed to work 9 to 6, five days a week, and 40 hours a week. This traditional 9 to 5 workweek has become a relic of the past. Today, the number of hours an employee works is not indication of their productivity level. Many companies adopt flexible working hours because each individual has his/her own bio-rhythm and unique situations, so that they he/she can work more creatively and efficiently by choosing his own working hours. Modern technology such as internet and mobile phones has also contributed to allowing employees to have different work hours because they can work remote and at his own convenient time. Automatically adopting a rigid schedule may have a negative effect on employees’ productivity and happiness. Now, it is time to drop the set working hours. We should let our employees work more autonomously with empowerment. The paradigm shift is necessary toward the traditional working hours.

Hi Sir [이름]!

I was able to know more the traditional working time table in Korea.

You are right! I agree with your ideas.

In the Philippines, people work from 8 a,m. to 5 p.m. from Mondays to Fridays.

It only differs for BPO companies. It is because they do shifting.

It changes every two weeks I guess.
We can talk more about this in class.

Have a great day.
