Trying to find a book - remember the story vaguely, read it maybe 20-30 years ago. People are living/working on assigned weekdays and sleep in others, a couple are interested to move to the same day and somebody arranges it to fail in some way.

Could it be Dayworld by Philip José Farmer?

thank you, actually it seems that it is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sliced-Crosswise_Only-On-Tuesday_World , which has inspired Dayworld :)

Ah, I was on the right track at least! Glad you found it though.
