How One Company Made Flexible Hours Work for Working Parents

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how a mid-sized tech company called PivotWorks redesigned its work schedules to truly accommodate working parents without penalizing their careers. They break down the specific policy — a 'core hours' model with flexible start and end times — and share data showing a 40% drop in attrition among parents within the first year. Lucas explains why most flexible work policies fail: they're informal, manager-dependent, and often stigmatized. They discuss how PivotWorks made flexibility structural, tracked usage transparently, and tied it to performance reviews. Luna pushes back on whether this model could scale to client-facing roles, and Lucas offers a surprising answer about what happened when they tested it in their sales team. A practical, data-backed look at a policy that actually moved the needle for working parents. #WorkingParents #FlexibleWork #PivotWorks #InclusiveWorkplace #RetentionStrategy #CoreHours #Careers #DiversityAndInclusion #EmployeeExperience #WorkLifeBalance #ParentalLeave #HRPolicy #TalentRetention #RemoteWork #ManagerTraining #PerformanceReviews #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
