Human resources are becoming increasingly important to organisations in regards to competitive advantage. Good human resource management requires ensuring employees have a good work-life balance. One way of promoting this is by means of flexible work arrangements (such as flexible work hours, working from home, and job sharing). Flexible work arrangements directly affect return on labour via work reallocation, and indirectly through job satisfaction and staff turnover. Not all flexible work arrangements have positive financial outcomes. Employers need to ensure good work reallocation to make the right flexible arrangements work for their organisations.
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
