Flexible Work Arrangements
A position with flexibility built in can help any employee balance their work and personal life. What’s more, more and more employees are looking for this benefit in any business. Millennials, who are now taking over our workforces, are looking for options to work from home, work part-time, or compress their workweek into four 10-hour days.
Remove Working
Working in an office isn’t necessarily a requirement anymore. The number of remote employees in the U.S. alone has increased by 103 percent since 2005. Now there are more technologies to keep in touch with your team away from the office, such as Skype, conference calling, and more.
Innovative Office Design
Some companies are updating their offices to improve the way that people work. These ‘flexible’ office spaces may combine open floor plans to encourage communication and spontaneous interaction along with private nooks for quiet work time. Common areas, such as a kitchen and break rooms can improve employee bonding and possibly sales. Better yet, more employers are adding ‘fun zones’ to their spaces, such as a Ping-Pong table or an area to relax.
