Australian employers are choosing to move to an ‘all roles flex’ model for employees, giving staff the power to decide where and when they work.
New data on flexible work has just been released.
It came from the Employer Census, which asked whether employers had implemented an ‘all roles flex’ approach.
Around 40 percent of respondents say they have shifted their focus from hours spent in the office, to output and outcomes.
Male and female-dominated industries are more likely to require a physical presence in the performance of duties, such as nursing, disability care, construction, mining and farming.
At a time when unemployment is at record lows, recent research found that advertising flexible working options led to a 20% to 30% increase in applicants.
