This report sets out to contribute to the present debate on the need for European companies and their workers to become more flexible and adaptable in the face of ongoing economic change and business restructuring. The guide should therefore provide useful and practical tips for company-level actors concerning the potential benefits of developing more flexible internal workplace policies. Equally, it has been developed to assist practitioners and social partners wishing to review and/or learn more about developing such initiatives. Part 1 of this guide consists of an introductory analysis on the subject of flexibility. It covers the European flexicurity debate and explains the concept of flexibility at company level, particularly organisational flexibility and working time flexibility. Part 2 comprises a practice-oriented presentation of five company cases presented at the Company Network Seminar, in order to illustrate how European companies are implementing these policies. |
