How to assess flexible-work options for your staff and keep a competitive edge

Like other workplaces across the country at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, many colleges sent staff home to work remotely, either full- or part-time. Now many colleges are considering whether remote or hybrid work should remain an option. But identifying the work arrangements most appropriate to your institution and to various roles is a complex process.

This report will help you develop a policy that will support and advance your institution’s mission. Full of expert advice and case studies, it also includes data from a Chronicle survey of administrators and human-resource professionals on factors influencing their thinking about new work models.

Order this report to:

• Understand the role of flexible work in recruiting and retention so your institution can create an implementation plan for the near- and long-term.
