Welcome to the world of
flexible working!

Starting flexible working can be daunting. So we have created this toolkit to help you enjoy the benefits of teleworking and other flexible working practices.  These include increasing productivity and improving your work life balance.

Supported by the South West Regional Development Agency, actnow flex is the first UK project to look in depth at the impacts of flexible working and teleworking on small and medium sized businesses. This toolkit is based on our research as well as feedback from businesses on their experiences of remote working and mobile working.

You can find useful advice about how to increase business productivity and how to make the most of remote web access. The toolkit also includes case studies of businesses in the South West Of England that have grasped the new opportunities.

As well as improving work life balance, working flexibly helps reduce your business carbon footprint, as you can reduce travel and avoid congestion. Whether you’re an employer or an employee, you can find here resources and insights to help make flexible working and teleworking a success.
