As the traditional 9-to-5 office is gradually replaced by an infinite variety of work configurations, organizations and employees need to be flexible and nimble to remain successful and competitive. This U.K.-based publication answers questions related to workplace flexibility. First published in print in 1993, Flexibility brings together "research and opinion about innovations in employment practice, organizational development, technological change and public policy." The site is well designed, structured mainly for managers, employees, workplace designers, IT and telecommunications suppliers, government and public policy makers, home workers, and researchers. Flexibility offers resources, review articles, briefing papers, and case scenarios on topics ranging from work-life balance to telecommuting. All are written with practical application of the various ideas and models in mind. The site is searchable by keyword and also has a glossary of terms and definitions.
