The Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) is offering a workplace flexibility kit that features 172 resources in the toolkit. You can use the link to narrow the number of resources that are relevant or applicable to you. In this toolkit, the terms Workplace Flexibility, Flexible Work Arrangements, Work-Life Balance, and Flexible Workplace Options are used interchangeable to describe all types of workplace flexibility that is offered.
Workplace flexibility is a Universal Strategy that helps meet the needs of employers and their employees. Such requirements include when, where, and how work is done. Workplace flexibility is mutually beneficial for both the employee and the employers and their business. If both the employee and the employer understand the needs of each other, this can alleviate miscommunications or potential problems that may arise. It also ensures the needs of both parties such as location, time, and manner are met.
ODEP and the Women’s Bureau have developed this comprehensive Workplace Flexibility Toolkit to help provide helpful information to employees, employers, policymakers, and researchers related to time, place, and task. Additionally, the toolkit discusses an innovative workplace flexibility approach related to ODEP’S Customized Employment research based data.
The Tooklit provides informative fact and tip sheets, reports, articles, websites, case studies and other frequently asked questions. This is an amazing resource from the ODEP that both employees and employers should utilize to guarantee workplace harmony and success.
