This #factory was severely short on workers. Then it offered #flexiblework
It's a change manufacturers including Stanley Black & Decker and Georgia-Pacific are embracing... Today, in any given week, about 450 flexible workers — roughly half the pool — pick up shifts at [GE Appliances] plant, with workers putting average of 24 hours a week. Their contributions have been key to #GE Appliances' $180M expansion of the #Georgia plant, completed last year, adding 600 new jobs.

"When the evidence clearly points elsewhere?" Yeah, here you go👇🏻
“Leaders talk about productivity, collaboration, culture and the creative energy that supposedly appears when people share a building”
And yet 👇🏻
“[…] mandate firms did not show a detectable improvement in profitability or firm value relative to non-mandate companies” [2/2]

Here are a couple of noteworthy quotes from the article:
“Judge people on output. Did the work get done, was it good, did the team hit what it said it would hit. That is the measurement. Chairs occupied is not a measurement of anything except chairs”👌🏻😍
“Make flexibility the default instead of the exception, so nobody has to file paperwork and disclose a medical condition just to keep doing the job they were already doing well”

One more worth reflecting on:
“In addition to the daily economics there’s the problem of coping with disasters. Floods, fires, terrorist attacks, earthquakes & just plain lousy weather are all occasions where telecommuting has proven effective in rapid recovery — to the point where a telecommuting plan is a necessary component of the disaster plan of every State of California government department”
Heat waves, anyone? 🥵

“Telecommuters don’t need as much office space. The productivity of telecommuters is higher than that of their in-office colleagues. Telecommuters are more loyal to their employers; they don’t use as much sick leave as their non-telecommuting colleagues. They don’t even need to live near your facilities — or in your country, if you’re finding that quality talent is hard to come by locally”

"Telecommuting is one important way of stretching our dwindling oil supplies and forestalling global warming while we invent viable and sustainable alternatives to those portents of disaster”

“Telecommuting is the substitution of information technology for the daily commute to and from the office” - Management by Results 👉🏻 https://jacknilles.substack.com/p/disasters-and-business-continuity-056

“Disabled people make up a significant portion of the population, and most nondisabled people will become disabled at some point in their lives. Caregivers [...] also rely on remote work to manage responsibilities that don’t pause for a commute […] Isolation is a legitimate concern. So is exclusion. Any conversation about the costs of remote work needs to weigh both”

@Valdis Many thanks, Valdis! 🙏🏻😊 Yeah, I saw that article earlier on this morning here in Mastodon, we talked about it in the community as well.
It looks like the masks are *finally* coming off, right? Specially, with poignant quotes like this one:
"They see any kind of remote work as a threat to their authority and admiration. They want to be worshipped at the office altar" 🤯😱

“When employees know that recovery is valued rather than merely permitted, they return more focused, more engaged and better equipped to do their best work. […] these practices communicate something critical about organizational culture. They tell employees that leadership recognizes they are human beings, not simply units of output”
From de- to re-humanisation of the workplace 💪🏻😎
