Horaire selon lequel un employé est obligé d'être présent au travail à l'intérieur d'une période obligatoire (plage fixe), identique pour tous les salariés, tout en ayant le loisir d'établir librement ses heures de travail à l'intérieur d'une période non obligatoire (plage mobile) qui entoure la plage fixe. 11, record 1, French, - horaire%20variable

horaire flexible; horaire dynamique : Les termes «horaire flexible» (Canada) et «horaire dynamique» (France) sont les noms français des raisons sociales utilisées par la firme Hengstler en France et au Canada et ont de ce fait une connotation commerciale. 9, record 1, French, - horaire%20variable
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 3 OBS
horaire forfaitaire : terme à éviter. Ce terme provient sans doute d'une analogie avec le «travail à forfait» pour lequel on parle d'horaire libre. La personne qui reçoit un travail à forfait bénéficie d'un horaire libre dans le cadre duquel elle choisit, sans contrainte autre que le délai terminal, le moment qui lui convient le mieux pour travailler. Par conséquent, c'est le travail qui est à forfait et non pas les heures. 13, record 1, French, - horaire%20variable
