Higher employee satisfaction, including that of quality employees
If your employees are able better to balance their personal and professional lives, they will be happier and thus more loyal. The company will then be able to retain quality workers who will not leave for your competitors.
Improving your employer brand
Flexibility is demanded by both employees and, most importantly, job candidates. Offering interesting benefits and flexible working conditions will make your employer brand more attractive, which means you will be more interesting to high-quality and promising potential employees.
Reducing employee sickness
Workers who are not under stress, can arrange their work flexibly, and are generally content do not suffer from the same ailments and illnesses as workers who, on the contrary, are constantly stressed out. The result of flexibility at work is therefore fewer workers on sick leave.
Reduced demands from workers for financial reward
One of the consequences of flexible working arrangements, which is also very pleasing for employers, is reduced demands for higher financial remuneration from workers. When employees are happy and offered excellent benefits, you as a company will not have to "overpay" them to stay with you.
