What 仂 means
仂 means a remainder or fractional share.
The Book of Rites, an ancient Chinese book on ritual and government, uses 仂 for public spending on offerings and mourning.
Classical in Chinese; Japanese dictionaries also list “effort.”
For ordinary Japanese work, use 働; 仂 is a nonstandard shorthand.

Questions people ask
1Why does 仂 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
