In some cases, it can even get in the way of employee productivity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>That\u2019s part of why many employers, despite ushering their employees back to the office, are leaning into flextime policies. Let\u2019s break down what flextime policies are, how they work, and why you should offer them to your employees if possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Flextime Policies Explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flextime<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/hr.ucdavis.edu\/departments\/worklife-wellness\/flexiblework\/flextime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is best understood<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as a flexible scheduling arrangement. In a nutshell, it gives both full and part-time employees the option to adjust or modify the hours they work in a given workday. Depending on the company, flextime policies can be more comprehensive or fairly limited; in either case, it doesn\u2019t lock employees into ironclad work schedules.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-93644 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Flextime-Policies-Explained.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Flextime-Policies-Explained.png 450w, https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Flextime-Policies-Explained-300x267.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Say that you previously had a corporate policy that mandated all employees had to be in the office from 8 AM to 5 PM, no matter what and no questions asked. However, when you implement a flextime scheduling policy instead, you give employees the option to arrive at work at 9 AM and work until 6 PM instead. Alternatively, you might allow employees to come in at 7 AM and work until 4 PM if that works better for them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bottom line: flextime means more flexible time for your employees, plain and simple.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What Are Chronotypes? And Are They \u201cReal\u201d?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flextime policies have sprung up as a result of new understandings of the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">human circadian rhythm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, especially the fact that humans have different \u201cchronotypes\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The circadian rhythm is essentially your biological clock. Most humans have a circadian rhythm that roughly works like this:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We rise with the sun, typically between 6 AM and 8 AM depending on the season<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have an afternoon slump in energy around 1 PM to 3 PM when we might want to take a nap<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We get another burst of energy between 5 PM and 7 PM<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019re ready for bed when the sun sets, usually between 8 PM and 10 PM<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, some people have different chronotypes. For example, \u201cnight owls\u201d are folks whose circadian rhythms cause them to have a burst of energy at night, while they feel sluggish in the morning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-93654 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/What-Are-Chronotypes-And-Are-They-Real.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/What-Are-Chronotypes-And-Are-They-Real.jpg 450w, https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/What-Are-Chronotypes-And-Are-They-Real-300x267.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Odds are your workplace is composed of employees with a great variety of chronotypes. Most people <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/blog\/sleep-newzzz\/202104\/the-four-chronotypes-which-one-are-you\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">have a standard chronotype<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that gels well with the standard 9-to-5 workplace schedule. But the rest of your employees might be night owls or just have slightly different circadian rhythms that result in poor productivity in the workplace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By implementing flextime policies at your business, you give employees the freedom to choose the working hours that best align with their most productive hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Why Offer Flextime to Your Employees?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many reasons why you might consider offering flextime schedules to your employees. Let&#8217;s take a look at them one by one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Improved Employee Health<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Firstly, flextime policies result in greater employee health. By giving your employees the opportunity to adjust their schedules and working hours, they can ensure they always get enough sleep, which is positively correlated with better <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mental and physical wellness<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">across the board.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Better Employee Morale<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, flextime often results in better employee morale. That&#8217;s partially due to getting more sleep, as described above, but it&#8217;s also because your employees will know that you value them and are focused on their well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-93664 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Better-Employee-Morale.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Better-Employee-Morale.png 450w, https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Better-Employee-Morale-300x267.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When employees know that executives care about their wellness, they\u2019re more likely to feel supported and comfortable at work and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/blog\/is-your-business-primed-to-spot-the-signs-of-burnout-in-staff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">less likely to feel burnout<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. That provides many other workplace benefits as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Boosted Employee Loyalty<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, flextime policies make your employees more loyal to your company. Given a choice between your brand and a business that offers a slightly higher paycheck but stricter workplace schedules, don&#8217;t be surprised if most or all of your employees decide to stay with your brand since you give them the freedom to work when they feel best.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>More Productivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps most importantly, flextime policies can and do result in more brand productivity. Simply put, when your employees feel productive and are at work, they will do more and better work than otherwise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, if you have a night owl employee and they <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shrm.org\/resourcesandtools\/hr-topics\/employee-relations\/pages\/tips-on-how-to-accommodate-night-owl-employees.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">have the freedom<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to come in from 12 PM to 9 PM, they might get more work done than if you forced them to come in from 8 AM to 4 PM. They might have six or seven complete hours of productive work, not counting breaks, as opposed to three or four hours at maximum.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<!-- GERMAN -->\n    <div class=\"middle-cta middle-cta--custom\" data-cta=\"custom\">\n\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/report_bars1.png\" alt=\"custom alt tag\">\n      <p>Experience the power of efficient project management. <a href=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/projects\/\"><br \/>\nSign up for free today!<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<!-- GERMAN -->\n    \n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>How to Implement Flextime in Your Workplace<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given the advantages of flextime scheduling, lots of business owners and executives are seeking smart ways to implement this new policy. As with any new policy, careful, safe implementation is just as important as improving the workplace in general.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t know where to start, try these flextime policy implementation ideas and strategies.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Start with Small Adjustments<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t completely change everyone\u2019s schedules all at once. Instead, begin with small adjustments, like giving employees the ability to change their working schedule by one hour in each direction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not only will this help everyone get used to the new flextime policy, but it will also ensure that your office continues to run relatively smoothly through the transition period. If the initial flextime policy is a success, you can consider expanding it to allow for even more drastic schedule changes, plus <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.waveapps.com\/blog\/so-you-hired-an-employee-whats-next\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">enabling it for new employees<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">so they can utilize it starting on their first day of work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Refocus Work Culture and Corporate Expectations<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, be sure to refocus your work culture and corporate expectations from the top down.

Don\u2019t let employees berate or denigrate each other for taking advantage of flextime policies, and make sure that employees don\u2019t feel subpar or lesser for working at different schedules than their peers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Offer Flexibility in Other Areas<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also start to offer proven employees <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2022\/02\/4-ways-managers-can-increase-flexibility-without-losing-productivity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">flexibility in other areas<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as well. That\u2019s because there are additional ways that companies can offer flexibility to employees besides the working hours of the day to improve productivity and efficiency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, many companies may issue certain employees company credit cards to pay directly for approved company expenditures, the idea being that offering the employees the ability to pay with the cards saves them time from having to go through additional hoops of asking a manager or another individual to pay for the expense instead. This is at no extra cost to the employee either, as the company also pays the processing fees, which are <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">normally no higher than 3.5%<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the total transaction, or otherwise refunds the employee for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Provide Educational Information to Employees<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Implementing flextime policies <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/forbeshumanresourcescouncil\/2020\/08\/25\/13-techniques-for-implementing-a-flexible-work-schedule-policy-efficiently\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">can be a little rocky at first<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, especially if many of your traditional employees don\u2019t see the need for the change. That\u2019s why you should offer educational information to your employees, like seminars and training modules, breaking down the information above.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teach your employees about circadian rhythms and the necessity of flextime schedules. That&#8217;ll ensure that your office feels united in its understanding of the new policy, plus minimize any stigma or bullying that might occur otherwise.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flextime policies have the potential to reinvigorate your workplace and give your employees the time and flexibility they need to succeed.
