quarter-time
Ten weekly hours
Quarter-time describes work or employment at roughly one-fourth of a standard full-time schedule—typically around ten hours per week.
Like half-time and part-time, it indicates reduced hours: She took a quarter-time position while finishing her degree.
In music, quarter time can refer to a tempo or rhythmic feel at one-fourth the original speed.
