Come join the discussion on new
research and best practices for improving schedule
effectiveness and work-life fit in hourly jobs,
including successful models from both employer policies
and union contracts. Most research on work-life fit has
focused on workplace flexibility for professionals. Yet
common scheduling practices for hourly workers can be
even more costly, with unstable and rigid schedules
leading to rampant absenteeism and turnover. Learn how
your workplace can enhance work-life fit for its hourly
workers – and improve its bottom line.
