Good morning. It’s Wednesday February 7, 2018 and this is your first early morning Jobs briefing!

Cynopsis asked our readers which office perk they appreciated most, and one answer dominated:
Flexible hours: 58%
Casual dress code: 20%
Free food: 12%
Gym/yoga membership 10%
 
While flexible work hours benefit employees, here are 3 ways employers benefit, too:
  1. Less absenteeism and tardiness. Employees needn’t call in sick or arrive late if they have to wait for a repairman or attend a teacher conference; they can tailor their hours to get the job done.
  2. A valuable recruiting tool. The best job candidates don’t have to settle for a company that doesn’t offer them a schedule that suits their work balance needs.
  3. More productive employees. Flexible hours boosts morale, making for happier employees who focus on the job at hand, not watching the clock.
