It sets a clear framework for the process of requesting and implementing appropriate arrangements that benefit both the employee and the employer.

The policy outlines several options for a flexible organization of working time and the place of work, including part-time working, flexitime, compressed working hours, remote working, career breaks or flexible retirement.
