Research has shown that flexibility, security and autonomy in the workplace are strong determinants of health.

And new research shows that employees who don’t have control over their work schedule take a serious #mentalhealth hit.

Why employers should care, besides just being good employers:

Even hardnose conservatives can surely observe that no amount of guilt-tripping helps people change their behaviour. In fact by undermining their mental health, it makes behavioural change harder.
