Policy: What is your flexible work philosophy?
It all begins here.
This is the stake in the ground to announce your position on flexible work: what is available and for whom.
At the traditional end of the spectrum, an organisation provides only what’s necessary by law.
In these types of organisations we often see a culture of long hours and promotion for those who spend the longest time in the office each day. There is often no flexible work policy or statement.
At the other, progressive end of the spectrum, flexible work options for when, where and how work is done are available for all without judgement.
In this type of organisation, the culture reflects quality of work over time spent working. Performance issues are separated from flexible work options.
Your values need to be documented in a policy that is accessible to all employees.
