Work is always a four letter word. When it isn't, it isn't work.

What sort of word is work, if you don't have it and need it?

oh wait... unemployed... 10 letter word
(acquiring Sony Reader Touch 600 not looking too promising, but on the bright side, glad to have my PRS700!)

uh, pshrynk... I think we've done that thread before. Or am I having deja vu?

Work in itself is not that bad a four letter word but it has a habit in transforming into toil and over time.

Lekker!

On topic now: WORK has only one syllable. LABOR has two syllables, and it has 5 letters. So WORK must have 4 letters.
