Abstract

ÖZÇalışma hayatında son yıllarda önemli görülen konulardan bir tanesi esneklik olgusudur. Bu araştırmada, işgörenlerin esnek çalışmaya ilişkin tutumlarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. İşgörenlerin esnek ça-lışma uygulamalarına yönelik tutumlarının; esnekliğin; bireysel, örgütsel ve toplumsal açıdan oluşturduğu avantajlarından ve dezavantajlarından etkilendiği söylenebilir. Araştırmada, esnek çalışma uygulamaları-nın örgütsel ve bireysel açılardan fayda ve sınırlılıkları göz önünde bulundurularak, esnek çalışmaya iliş-kin işgören tutumları belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Araştırma, kamu sektöründe ve özel sektörde farklı alanlarda çalışan bireyler üzerinde yapılmıştır. Araştırmada kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak ulaşılan 294 anket verisi SPSS 18 istatistik programında analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada esnek çalışma uygulamalarına yönelik tutumlar; iş-yaşam dengesinin örgütsel yararları, esnek çalışmanın neden olduğu yönetsel sınırlılıklar ve kariyer sorunları olmak üzere üç boyut doğrultusunda incelenmiştir. Araştırma ile işgörenlerin, esnek çalışma uygulamalarının boyutlarına yönelik tutumlarının farklı olduğu ve söz konusu bazı boyutlara yönelik tutumların cinsiyet ve eğitim durumuna göre farklılaştığı belirlenmiştir. A STUDY OF INVESTIGATING THE ATTITUDES OF WORKERS TOWARDS FLEXIBLE WORKING ABSTRACTOne of the fact seen important in working life in recent years is flexibility. It is aimed to determine attitudes of workers about flexible working in this research. It is said that the individual, organizational and social advantages and disadvantages of flexibility affect attitudes of workers about flexible working. In this research, it is aimed to determine attitudes of workers about flexible working considering individual and organizational benefits and limitations of flexible working practices. This research was done on workers employed in different areas in public and private sector. 294 survey data obtained with using convenience sampling method analyzed with SPSS 18 in research. The attitudes of workers about flexible working examined in the direction of three dimensions which are the organizational benefits of work-life balance, administrative limitations derived from flexible working and career problems in research. As result of research, it was determined that the attitudes of workers toward three dimensions of flexible working practices were different and the attitudes toward some dimensions differentiated with regard to gender and education.

What has flexible working provided for us in the Covid 19 pandemic period?

“…A questionnaire was used for data collection in the study. The questionnaire was prepared by the researchers through a literature review (Hildebrandt, 2006;Pichler, 2009;Doğrul and Tekeli, 2010;Giannikis and Mihail, 2011;Doğan et. al., 2015).…”

The role of work life balance in the effect of boundaryless career and protean career attitudes on subjective career success

“…Flexible working schedules offered to employees such as flexible working hours, remote work, and job sharing will contribute to the establishment and maintenance of work-life balance for employees (Beauregard et al, 2009;Peters et al, 2009;Delecta, 2011). It can be said that providing employees with the flexibility to set their own working hours helps them to devote the necessary time to their personal living spaces and family responsibilities and to concentrate more on their duties and responsibilities in the workplace (Doğan et al, 2015). If working individuals manage to allocate the necessary time to their work life, family life and personal lives and if they manage not to reflect the problems experienced in one of these areas to the other, this means that work-life balance can be achieved (Delecta, 2011).…”

Workplace Flexibility and Organizational Commitment: The Mediator Role of Psychological Contract

“…al., 2008;Scandura & Lankau, 1997). When the national literature is examined, it is seen that there is a limited number of studies in which employees' perceptions of flexible practices in the workplace are considered (e.g., Avcı and Yavuz, 2020;Camlı, 2010;Dogan et al, 2015;Kordeve and Aydıntan, 2016). Accordingly, it is predicted that examining flexibility within the scope of different models will contribute to the field.…”
