95% Support Flexible Working
In this week’s quick poll on the Chamber’s homepage, over 95% of voters have said ‘YES’ that ‘flexible working is good for business’.
Of 438 votes cast, 95.89% said yes, to 4.11% voting no.
Flexible working is increasingly becoming more important. It offers staff greater control over their working lives, improves both efficiency and productivity, encourages staff retention and helps improve the all-important work/life balance.
By allowing staff to work more flexible hours or the option to work from home, even just one day a week, employers can see a range of benefits. It’s even better for the environment, cutting down on travel emissions (and expenses).
