If you own or operate a small business, you probably have looked for perks that you can offer your employees to help boost morale, increase productivity and generate some loyalty.
However, you don’t have the budget of a big company, so extras like company cars, gym memberships and in-house babysitting are probably too expensive to even consider.
There is one perk that you can offer your employees, and it won’t cost a dime: Flexibility!
A flexible schedule is extremely valuable to the working mother, the working father, the part-time student, or even the employee who has a second job.
Flex time employees may choose to arrive at work a few hours early so they can, in turn, leave a few hours early. Or they may choose to arrive at work late, but then stay long after everyone else has left the office.
Flex time allows people to essentially design their own schedule - within reason - as long as a minimum number of hours are worked each week and all deadlines are met.
