Join Lucy Dahill as she explores what a flexible work arrangement could look like.

Flexible work practices can vary for each individual depending upon the type of work, work pattern available to employees, and the effect flexibility has on the employer.

A flexible work arrangement can be classified as a variation to the standard full-time core job functions including a change of location as to where you perform some of your job functions or a change in the hours you perform your work activities.

Flexible work arrangements come in all shapes and sizes and are often innovative in design and structure, having both formal and informal elements. When flexible work practices are agreed between an employee and manager, the flexible work approach is made workable by a high degree of trust and with the consideration to the needs of the individual employee, the team, and the manager involved.
