Flexible working, also known as flexible scheduling or flextime, refers to work arrangements that allow employees to deviate from traditional office hours and work locations. It encompasses various flexible work options such as flextime, compressed workweeks, job sharing, telecommuting, and remote work.
Flexible working offers numerous benefits to both employers and employees. For employees, it enhances work-life balance, reduces stress levels, improves productivity, and fosters a sense of autonomy and job satisfaction. For employers, flexible work arrangements can lead to increased employee retention, reduced absenteeism, lower overhead costs, and access to a wider talent pool.
