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.
