Tiivistelmä: | The purpose of this study is to explore factors that affect employees' perceptions towards flexible work options and to examine whether the perceived benefits and barriers associated with work flexibility predict one's decision participating in flexible work arrangements or not. A total of 362 Greek employees participated in the study. Univariate analyses of variance and logistic regression analysis were conducted with the aim of exploring the research hypotheses. It is found that attitudes towards flexible work options are dependent on gender, the sector of employment and prior participation in a flexible work scheme. The findings of the study suggest that employee-centered organisations that view flexibility as a valuable management tool, should concern with specific barriers that discourage people from taking up flexible work arrangements. |
