IMPROVED BUSINESS PERFORMANCE
Flexible working times can help businesses to better meet customers’ needs as working patterns can be matched to when the service is required. Contact time with clients is increased as a result of reduced travel. Giving employees more control over their work-life balance also means they are more productive during each working hour.

INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY
Flexible working leads to lower staff absenteeism, increased productive time and improved customer service. It also means you are able to recruit better people by offering attractive working practices.

HIGHER MORALE AND MOTIVATION
Employee turnover can be dramatically reduced by offering flexible working, with reductions in recruitment and training costs. Greater employee satisfaction and loyalty is enjoyed, along with less work-related stress.

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
Work-related car journeys can be substantially cut by moving from a central urban office to regional satellite offices, improving your carbon footprint.

REDUCED ACCOMMODATION COSTS
Office space can be reduced and used more effectively which lowers accommodation costs. Desk sharing can be introduced if employees work remotely and flexibly.

When relocating people, flexible working can also help to minimise the disruption and retain key employees who might otherwise leave.
