What does it mean when the job description says “flexible working hours”?
Old definition:
We, the firm, are flexible on the hours you want to work. You choose the hours you want to work, we just want the work done.
New definition1:
We want you to be flexible, to work the hours that we want. Don’t expect fixed, or predictable hours. Be ready to work when we say, for how long we say.
- Mostly seen in the startup and on-demand (Uber/Deliveroo) sectors. ↩
