Abstract

Flexible work arrangements have become an increasingly popular topic in business and management discussions around the world. Many companies are starting to realise the benefits of work flexibility for their employees and organisations, especially in an era where technology has made remote working easier and more common. This research will analyse the benefits and challenges associated with implementing flexible work arrangements for employees, with the aim to understand better how flexible work arrangements can be integrated into organisations in the most effective and beneficial way for all parties. The focus of this study is primarily qualitative. Methods for gathering information included paying close attention and taking detailed notes, with subsequent analysis included data reduction, visualization, and inference. The study arrived at the conclusion that flexible working arrangements can provide significant benefits to employees, such as better work-life balance, increased productivity, reduced stress, and retention of good employees.
