Flexible work is what we call it when an employer uses a 'flexible shell' to replace or supplement their own permanent employees.
This includes flexible employment relationships, like fixed-term employees, temporary workers, seconded workers, on-call workers, or self-employed people. Flexible work can also include reallocating the company's in-house, permanent employees in a different, more flexible way, for example by changing working hours or tasks to cope with temporary or long-term business fluctuations.
Because of the many opportunities it can offer employers and employees, flexible work is becoming an increasingly popular solution. But flexible work also comes with certain risks. It's regulated by different laws and regulations, which are complex and extensive. So it's crucial to align the flexible workforce with laws and regulations and the employer's organisation.
