Flexible Working Employer Guide
Flexible Working Arrangements
Share on:
Businesses often think flexible work means working from home or remote working but the reality is flexible working covers a broader range of employment arrangements. Flexible working is a newer, modern way of looking at employment relationships. It's not just an easy way for employees but also an opportunity for employers to look at improving wellbeing and morale.
Many Australian businesses have formal policies and strategies on flexible working arrangements. Having formalised policies and processes ensures that businesses set clear expectations around flexible working and potential alternatives for employees. Formal policies also avoid misunderstandings and enable employees to know what pathways are available to them. Peninsula's free e-guide for employers and business owners discusses what flexible working arrangements are in Australia, tips to manage flexible work requests, and managing health and safety for flexible workers.
