ICT Companies benefitted from flexi-working
According to new research from Regus, 84% of information and communications technology (ICT) Companies report that their productivity has increased as a result of flexible working practices, and 82% link increasing revenues directly to flexi-working. The research surveyed over 16,000 senior business managers around the world and reveals how different sectors and industry types are reaping the benefits of flexible and mobile work. It is believed to be the first time that independent research evidence has validated the causal connection between flexible working (time and/or place of work) and improved productivity/revenue generation.
Madhusudan Thakur, Regional Vice-President, South Asia, Regus said, "Technology and network improvements as well as worker demands for a better work/life balance have driven flexible working to become the norm rather than the exception. As to be expected, different sectors are embracing flexible work at varying paces, however what is clear is that no matter what industry you are in, the great majority of people see benefits in flexible work."
Other interesting findings are: 83% of media and marketing companies declare that they work more on the move than they used to; 86% of consultancy and services respondents say that workers in their company feel healthier thanks to flexible working; and 100% of media and marketing respondents expect a surge in the number of people that go part-time at some point in their career path.
