Flexible Work Arrangements

The Work/Life Resource Center offers confidential consultations to help you negotiate a flexible work schedule to meet your work and personal responsibilities. In addition, WLRC offers help for managers to find a way to manage flexible schedules and work arrangements successfully. We also have information on telecommuting, including a sample practice guide developed through a pilot program out of the U-M’s Associate Vice President for Finance Office. Also in this section, we have a few sample proposals that you might use as a guideline to draft your own. Finally, we list relevant SPG (Standard Practice Guide) policies as well as a bibliography and Web links.

Resource topics in this section include:

• Types of Flexible Schedules
• Sample Flex Proposals (pdf)
  • LSA Guidelines (pdf)
• Telecommuting
  • Sample: AVP Finance Telecommuting Practice Guide (pdf)
    Note: This guide is not a University policy.  It is included here only as an example for departments to use as a guideline in establishing their own policy.
