Flexible working

Many government ministries and organisations have introduced elements of flexible working. Flexible working means working anytime, anywhere, and on any device. Staff do their work where and when it suits them and their function. 

Why flexible working?

The relationship between government and citizens is changing, and so is the relationship between managers and staff. Flexible working ties in with these changes and has many advantages.

Advantages of flexible working

Flexible working can contribute to:

  • increased labour productivity;
  • improved work quality;
  • a better work-life balance;
  • savings on accommodation costs. ICT creates opportunities for smarter and more mobile ways of working.
