With a staggering 82% of workers in Scotland currently embracing or desiring flexible work arrangements, it's evident that traditional ways of working are changing. This paradigm shift is particularly crucial for those in the early stages of business as embracing flexible working is not just a trend; it's a game-changer. Despite the unique challenges in manufacturing and engineering, achieving flexibility is not only possible but also a key factor in attracting and retaining skilled professionals.

But why should you care about fostering a flexible work environment? Beyond being a considerate employer, supporting your team in achieving a healthy work-life balance pays off in more ways than one. Research shows that employees with flexible working arrangements are not only more engaged at work but also exhibit greater commitment to the success of your business.
