Full-Time Employee (FTE) Any employee who works an average of at least 30 hours per week for more than 120 days in a year. Part-time employees work an average of less than 30 hours per week.
The standard for full-time employment was typically 40 hours a week in the past. However, many employers now consider employees as full-time when they work fewer hours i.e. over 30 hours, 35 hours, or 37.5 hours. Because there are no laws regulating full-time employment for compensation and benefits purposes, the organization determines how many hours per week are considered full-time.
