Time for steady diversion from work (3,2,4)

I believe the answer is:

day of rest

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'time' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to time as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'for steady diversion from work' is the wordplay.
'for steady' can be anagrammed to 'DAY OF REST'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for day of rest that I've seen is " Time set aside".)
