Flexible work arrangements, including working from home, remote working, flexi-hours and part time roles, are being increasingly explored within businesses. This dramatic shift in approach has been partly driven by the differences in workforce composition, rise in digital platforms and technology, introduction of co-working spaces and the sharp increase in workspace rental prices. There is much debate at the moment over the role and impact these flexible work arrangements play in business. However increasingly we are seeing a positive improvement in productivity, employee satisfaction, and mental health and well-being.
