weekend work
Off-hours labor
Weekend work is labor performed on Saturday or Sunday, days traditionally reserved for rest.
The phrase often carries a note of reluctance or sacrifice: I've got weekend work to catch up on.
Some jobs routinely require weekend work; for others, it signals overflow from the regular week or exceptional demand.
