Description
Success in a rapidly changing business environment requires organizations to seamlessly weave flexible ways of working into the fabric of the organization; into how work is structured, managed and accomplished. A flexible workplace is one that uses and is supportive of flexible work practices as a strategy to meet the dual agenda - the needs of both business and employees; in other words, a supportive, results-based culture.
The Flexible Workplace – A Guide for Managers in a Health Care Setting is an e-Course specially designed for those who manage others in a hospital or health care organization. Illustrations are health care related and this course includes a section called "Flexibility works in hospitals" and another one called "Telework in a health care setting". Both of these sections describe the special challenges hospitals face making remote arrangements available for staff.
