Managing the Part-Time Professional: Corporate Communication, Initial Adjustment & Adaptable Scheduling: Best Practice Summary

STUDY OVERVIEW
BENCHMARK CLASS
SPECIAL OFFER

Assign specific responsibilities to HR to facilitate the adoption of flexible
work arrangements.
In addition to the detailed written information in Lucent Technologies’
personnel guide – which addresses items such as medical, dental and vision
benefits; vacation days and time off; and the tuition assistance program –
employees in each business area have another resource: human resources business
partners. Since cutting back from full-time hours is likely to impact
benefits, this is often a vital concern for employees moving to flexible
arrangements.

Equipped with knowledge about how flexible arrangements affect benefits and
status changes, these business partners allow employees to make informed
decisions about the arrangement that best fits their needs. Their
responsibilities are also clearly spelled out in the personnel guide:
� Consider alternative work arrangements, such as compressed work
schedules, a strategy for facilitating staffing issues;
� Assist and encourage employees and supervisors wishing to implement
alternative work arrangements; and
� Monitor results in terms of productivity, absenteeism, employee
satisfaction, and customer satisfaction.

Clearly define and communicate part-time reps’ budgets, reward and recognition
systems, and compensation structure ...
