For years, companies have competed for employees with perks like free lunches, team outings, and game rooms.
But if you manage hourly employees, new research says your team wants something much simpler:
A better schedule.
According to a global study of 8,200 frontline workers across 10 countries conducted by UKG, after pay, work schedule flexibility is the second most important factor influencing whether frontline employees stay or leave their jobs.
Flexibility Doesn't Mean Working from Home
For frontline workers, it means:
- ✓Knowing their schedule sooner.
- ✓Easily swapping shifts.
- ✓Getting time off when life happens.
Scheduling is no longer just an administrative task — it's a retention strategy.
