Workers prefer flexi-hours

MORE than half of Britain's workers want more say over their working hours to help them balance jobs and family life, a poll showed today. More than half of the 820 people surveyed by the TUC said they would be happier and more productive if they had flexitime or other forms of flexible working. Nearly two out of five people said that they worked unsocial hours such as nights or weekends - more than twice as many as in the Netherlands, which the TUC used as a comparison.
