Boulder, CO (PRWEB) October 11, 2016 -- To celebrate the progress of work flexibility in recent years, FlexJobs has just released the FlexJobs 250: Top Companies for Flexible Jobs, a list based on an analysis of over 40,000 companies and their flexible job posting histories in FlexJobs’ database between October 1, 2013 and October 1, 2016. A “flexible job” is defined as a professional-level job that has a telecommuting, flexible schedule, part-time, or freelance component.

"The landscape of flexible work has evolved dramatically since I founded FlexJobs, and it's important to celebrate how much progress companies have made towards work flexibility in recent years," said Sara Sutton Fell, Founder and CEO of FlexJobs

There has been significant growth in both the availability of flexible jobs in the past three years--FlexJobs experienced a 75 percent increase in the number of flexible jobs posted in its database--and in the awareness of why work flexibility is important. In fact, the creation of the FlexJobs 250 list in honor of the three year anniversary of 1 Million for Work Flexibility, an advocacy initiative launched by FlexJobs’ founder Sara Sutton Fell to help encourage anyone who wants or needs work flexibility to easily show that they think flexible work options are important.

Technological advancements, such as Wi-Fi, smartphones, cloud-based technologies and new collaboration tools and applications, along with generational changes, have driven the rise of flexibility in the workforce. Today, flexibility is a top element workers look for in a job, with the majority of workers willing to change jobs, change careers, or give up a promotion to achieve better work-life balance.

“The landscape of flexible work has evolved dramatically since I founded FlexJobs, and it’s important to celebrate how much progress companies have made towards work flexibility in recent years," said Sara Sutton Fell, Founder and CEO of FlexJobs. “Professional, viable flexible jobs are now available across a wide variety of industries and at all career-levels, which is due both to companies hearing their employees’ demands for work flexibility, as well as employers themselves recognizing the many benefits.”

A brief overview of the state of flexible work:

  • 80 percent of U.S. companies currently offer flexible work arrangements.
  • 75 percent of companies worldwide have introduced flexible working policies and 58 percent of US companies have reported increased profits after implementing flexible working.
  • 89 percent of HR professionals say flexible work arrangements will be more prevalent in the next five years.
  • Since 2013, work-life balance, family, time savings, and commute stress have been the top reasons people seek flexible work.

More details on specific types of work flexibility (telecommuting, freelance, part-time and flexible schedules):

  • Telecommuting specifically has grown 103 percent in the last ten years, and 37 percent of U.S. workers telecommute at least some of the time (up from 9 percent in 1995).
  • Nearly one in five workers currently work part-time in the U.S. By 2020, that figure is expected to rise to 40 percent. 77 percent of those part-time workers work part-time for non-economic reasons.
  • There are now 53 million freelancers in the U.S., compared to only 10.3 million freelancers in 2005.
  • 82 percent of employers allow staffers flexible scheduling to take time off during workdays to attend to important needs without a loss of pay

Companies of all sizes hiring for a range of positions and across a variety of industries are represented on the list. Medical & Health, HR & Staffing, Computer & IT, and Education & Training are the top industries featured on the FlexJobs 250 list but others such as Accounting & Finance, Government and Travel & Hospitality are also prevalent.

Below are the top 25 companies on the FlexJobs 250: Top Companies for Flexible Jobs list, as well as examples of jobs currently posted and the flexibility the job offers. FT refers to full-time schedules and PT refers to part-time schedules. To see the entire list, please visit: https://www.flexjobs.com/blog/post/flexjobs-250-companies-with-the-most-flexible-jobs/
