The half-empty office: dilemmas in managing locational flexibility

H. Fogarty, Peter Scott, Stephen Williams

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Through a case study contrasting the impacts of formalised and informal teleworking practices on office-based workers, multidimensional dilemmas between flexibility, control and equity are uncovered. Formal schemes, although problematic and rare, possess some advantages in resolving the three dimensions. A model is proposed to test findings further.
