Employees will be liable for 32 hours at Game Freak throughout the four-day work week, or eight hours every day. However, compared to a regular work week, there is a modest decrease in pay and incentives. During the months when employees work four days a week, they will get 80% of their overall compensation.

Game Freak already has a work-from-home program in place that was established years ago.

In addition, the firm offers hourly paid leave and staggered work schedules.
