There is great flexible in work week in UASCS, the law states that the minimum workweek is 35 hours per week. However, as the great tradition of Asia continues after communism transformation, many citizens voluntarily work for his own "pleasure" and drive to be successful.

This voluntary work has produced the greatest numbers of innovation in UASCS, i.e one of the country most successful car engine, the N41 Engine, was invented by a engineer who were working on an old version of engine is his extra work time. Many of our Union's most successful music and art are created by individuals who are motivated to work.

Dangerous and unpleasant work are given even shorter work week of 25 hours a week. All citizens roughly receive the same amount of money, although it depends on performance and seniority, more senior workers are guaranteed to get paid more.

Culturally, citizens agree that more senior workers are entitled to better pay, as everybody will eventually get better pay. Distinguished work are given Medals(that a person can wear on his/her uniform) and bonuses. Everybody except those who wanted to continue, retired with full benefits at age 45.

The 8-hour workday is well established. There are movements to abolish the seven-day-week due to its origin, but these normally ar regarded as fringe-groups. Saturday was implemented as half a work-day, thus 44hrs.

Government businesses and banks (apart from core sections and emergency branches) generally follow this schedule:


MondayTuesdayWednesdayThursdayFridaySaturdaySunday
10:00-15:0010:00-19:0009:00-22:0010:00-19:0010:00-19:0010:00-15:00Closed


Although, added up together it creates a 50-hour workweek, staff are always split into two batches. The first batch will work on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, having Saturday and Sunday off, where as the second batch will work on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturdays, having Sunday and Monday off. This results in a 45-hour workweek for a government worker or bank worker.

We don't work, we enjoy our hobbies.
Some people do their plumbing hobby a few hours a month, some do their gardening hobby 24/7.

Hobbies supply all the needs of the population.

6 hours a day 7 days a week this is the government work hour

industrial work hours are usually 9 hours a day and 6 days a week along with a chosen day off every week meaning they will work 5 days that week but without being paid for that day they took off. If they decided not to take a day off the week before. then they will get paid for the day they take off the current week.

Service industry hours are usually 3 days a week. but 12 hours those 3 days. people work different shifts on different days so that all days of the week are covered.

Corporate Executives can work as many days a week they want as long as its a minimum of 2 days. Any smartass who thinks he can avoid working at least 2 days will be surprised to see the ownership of his business handed to someone else. We may be an extreme capitalistic state, but we have an economy to run and lazy executives are seen trash to the government the executive may easily get his business back if he just signs a form of apology and accepts an agreements to work hard for 6 months, meaning a minimum of 5 days work a week. Executives also have the power to overrule these laws if his company made a large enough profit in the past 4 months, or a "third" (in post-freelasio we dont have quarters, we have thirds). The laws over business generally aren't enforced unless there is a death involved. But those who comply get a nice incentive if they do sign the agreement. However, if the government thinks the business owner is not working on purpose to get cash, then he will have the choice of being executed, having the media lie to the public about him having various scandals to publicly humiliate him for the rest of his life (we control the media), or he will be imprisoned for 6 life sentences. We believe in a philosophy of hard work. And cheating for cash is not tolerable here. Other than that, the CEOs can pretty much do what they wish.
