It depends on what your arrangment with them is and what policies you have promulgated. You may contact me.

Yes, it not only requires their agreement, their approval must be in the form of a secret ballot vote among the employees. This vote must follow a written disclosure of the affects of the new schedule as well as a meeting with the employees to allow them to ask questions.
This procedure is tightly regulated and must be followed to the letter for your alternative workweek to hold up to review.
My firm has established many alternative work week schedules. If you require help, feel free to contact me.
