Flexible working: Beyond the hybrid
Astrid Allen, Research Fellow
Webinar summary:
Flexible working is a term which covers a wide variety of working practices, which change where, when or how much someone works. Research reveals significant inequality in the use of flexible working arrangements in the UK and a significant unmet demand from the working population. During this webinar IES Research Fellow, Astrid Allen shared insights from the Fair Flex For All project currently underway with the NHS, Sir Robert McAlpine and Wickes.
This webinar covered:
- What flexible working options are there, aside from home and hybrid working?
- What are the potential benefits of a wide-ranging approach to flexible working?
- Can flexible working work for everyone?
- What lessons can we learn from employers delivering flexible working to site based and ‘frontline’ roles?
- What practical steps need to be taken to successfully deploy diverse flexible working approaches?
- What does success look like?
