Here's what's happening this week:
Last Week’s QOTW Poll Results:
Q: Do you prefer traditional business hours or flexible hours during a normal work week?
- Traditional hours - 10%
- Flexible hours - 90%
The poll results should come as no surprise! They show a significant preference for flexible hours among workers, with 90% opting for flexible hours. This highlights a growing trend in the workforce valuing flexibility, which can enhance productivity, job satisfaction, and employee retention. What does this mean for employers? Understanding this shift is crucial for attracting and retaining top talent, offering flexible hours could set your organization apart in a competitive job market. It might be time to reassess your workplace policies to align with this preference, ensuring your team remains motivated and engaged. Connect with us if you’d like to talk more!
