Companies who offer flexible work schedules are more apt to retain talented employees.
Companies can reduce overhead by allowing employees to work remotely. They save on the costs associated with building maintainance, utilities, and property taxes.
“While in the past this would have come with concerns around whether employees were actually working, the plethora of digital communication tools available today – phone, instant messenger, collaboration tools, and yes, email – mean that it’s easy to see when employees aren’t at their virtual desk”. (Curzon, 2018)
