New study: more flexibility linked to better health
Feb. 19th: A new evidence review suggests that giving employees more flexibility in their work schedules is likely to boost their health through reduced blood pressure and stress. But interventions that are motivated or dictated by the needs of the employer, such as cutting hours, either have no effect on employee health or make it worse. "Control at work is good for health,” said review co-author Clare Bambra, a researcher at Durham University in England. “Given the absence of ill health effects associated with employee-controlled flexibility, and the evidence of some positive improvements in some health outcomes,” Bambra said, more flexibility in work schedules “has the potential to promote healthier workplaces and improve work practices.” In addition to physical risks, the workplace can pose a threat to health due to factors like high workloads, time pressures, lack of control and limited social interaction with others, said review lead author Kerry Joyce, also a researcher at Durham University. Stress, in turn, can contribute to conditions like heart disease, depression and anxiety.
