The infinite workday is a work pattern where working time encompasses hours beyond the traditional workweek and weekend.

The infinite workday blurs boundaries between personal and work time leading to a continuous cycle of work-related activities. This phenomenon is attributed to the rise of remote work, flexible work arrangements, improved tooling that enables employees to stay connected, and hustle culture.[1][2] The inifinite workday may negatively impacts work-life balance.[3][4]
