If office attendance is important to your organisations’ culture, succession planning and financial outcomes, who do you think should drive the flexible working policy within your organisation?
In Gartner’s recent survey of senior People & Culture executives, it revealed that:
- Only 40% of senior management were actively tracking attendance;
- 35% were gathering data from sources which did not reflect the full picture such as Fob or Swipe Access Cards; and
- Only 22% of middle management (commonly tasked with mandating office attendance) were tracking their teams’ attendance.
Currently, most middle management in corporations are being tasked with the responsibility to manage their organisations flexible work policies. They generally have the responsibility of overseeing office attendance within their teams and departments.
Should it be middle management’s responsibility to manage this, or should it be directed by the Executive Team?
What do you think?
