social time

Time with others

Social time is time spent with others, especially in casual or recreational settings rather than work contexts: I need to schedule some social time with friends.

The term often appears when people discuss work-life balance or the importance of maintaining relationships.

Social time can also refer to the flexible, relationship-oriented approach to punctuality in certain cultures, where arriving "on time" matters less than the quality of interaction.
