The FLSA does not address flexible or alternative work schedules. According to the DOL, Alternative work arrangements such as flexible work schedules are a matter of agreement between the employer and the employee (or the employee’s representative). The DOL has numerous articles and opinion letters concerning alternative and flexible work schedules. A example of a 2009 DOL opinion letter can be found here.
