Core hours

Hello,

We currently have core hours in place (10-4) to enable employees to encourage these hours for meetings and use the hours either side as a buffer to get other work done, but also allow flexibility for those preferring to start late or finish early. We are finding this system is no longer working effectively for us and was wondering if other companies have core hours, if so what are they, whether this is working for you and what you are encouraging?

Thank you!

  • Personal view after having worked for a super flexible org that had core hours of 11am-3pm, with "try to avoid meeting" hours between 12-2pm to encourage lunch breaks, and only for safety purposes, if you are coming to the office, to work only betwen 7am-8pm due to security guards time schedules - and this is way before the pandemic.... As stated by another member above, the current core hours your org has is not really flexible at all considering the recent developments in 3 years of WFH and flexible working...
