I have however witnessed its implementation in a UK company but was unaware there was a "managerialese" definition to it.
The results were impressive and productivity increased.

The time off issue is one of the things that I thought long and hard about when deciding what career to persue. My hubby works 12 hour shifts but only works 2 or 3 days in a row and gets 2 or 3 days off per week. He gets every other weekend off and every 8 weeks the pattern alternates between 2 or 3 weeks off.
I chose to become a teacher because I love being with children but also to maximise my chances of finding work and to enable me to spend as much time as possible with my hubby and boys. I absolutely love the job and for our future in Oz, time with the children, days out etc, the 14 or so weeks off a year (or more as I'll probably have to do supply work) will be great.
