How much is full time?

Question

does it depend on how many hours a day or how many hours a week or both?

Answer 1

40 hours per week. Usually it is 8 hours per day for 5 days, but 40 hours per week is considered full time.

Answer 2

The Bureau of Labor Statistics defines full time work as 35 or more hours per week.

Answer 3

40 hours

Answer 4

I think 40 hours a week...or 8 hours a day.  But since everybody else here is saying 40 hours, I think its 40 hours.  Yeah..*thinks* it should be 40 hours a week.  that makes more sense.  Because if full time was just defined as "8 hours a day" then a person could just work 1 day and call it 'full time'.  And that wouldn't be very efficient.

So I think 40 hours per week is it.  Its full time.

Answer 5

Full time is usually 32- 40 hours a week.  40 hours is the max for regular time.  Anything over 40 is considered overtime. But normally, your work status is determined by the employer.

Answer 6

It usually depends on the # of hours - normally 40/week.
