Hi friends I accept your discussions!but what we have to see is Flexible timings is not our culture it's actually copied from other IT fields & MNC's etc, They are trying us to make lazy. Fixed timings is the only opportunity to innovate something new!
Someone have mentioned we work to live and not to live for working. Good point but actually in fixed timings we have time to discuss and say our opinions/our innovative ideas to Boss. Instead in flexible timings we cannot catch him he may be busy in our free time. So there will not be any growth.
And also in flexible timings we youngsters always procrastinate the things. If the target to be achieved tomorrow today day night we will do and at last we submit worthless work. If we adopted to fixed timings the regular work will be continuing so there we feels job satisfaction.
Someone have mentioned work life balance if we are flexi timings; wholeheartedly am telling 90% of them will spend fully with family members rest only as sincere workers!
Thankq. |

| Well. Flexi or fixed is depending on mainly two factors, nature of job and location of job. According to me give the choice to your employees what he/she prefers and apply the HR Rule accordingly. Reason, employees represents multiple family backgrounds and culture. So we should respect their life style. The objective should be - employee should deliver best performance for the organization. |

Which will make employee more enthusiastic and they will free towards stress which help them to provide innovative and creative idea's which is good for the organisation. |

| According to me flexible timing is the best way to complete our work with creativity and in innovative manner. Success with pressure is not an achievement. Completing task in a relaxed way will mold us. Working for our fulfillment is knowledge. Being flexible is good habit likewise flexible timing is the most preferable way for success. Fixed timing it is like a lifeline for the workers. Completing work is not so good. Completing work with perfection and involvement will decide the quality of a person. So better way to achieve is flexible timing. |

| Hi, in my point of view the timings depends on the work. And flexible timings is better than fixed timings because working in the free time allows a human mind to concentrate on the job that we are doing. Since we don't have any pressures in completing the task we can do the job perfectly and gives a lot of satisfaction. In fixed timings we are always in a hurry to reach the office, do the work and come back to home in time, which shows lot of pressure on the human brain. |

| Well hi every one, in my point of view fixed time is the preferable one because it has got something in that a task must be accomplished with in a given time more over flexible timing can also gives the same what matters is dedication and responsibility of accomplishing the task, there might be some mental tensions and fears we will be facing but we are humans right and pressure handling in this competitive world is the primary and fore most thing an individual must be capable of. So, try accomplishing a given task in given time and start enjoying the work feel the difference. |

This is Kunal Gaurav want to give my opinion in front of you. According to my point of view flexi timing & fixed timing for work is depend upon the person & his ability, as a example some person are devoted for his work for that person flexi timing is suitable because he know his task what he has to do, but some person not understand his responsibility and fix time will not given to him then he will not finish his work, so that why I told flexi timing and fix timing depend upon the ability of person.
I want to add one more point about flexi timing, if flexi timing is provide for good employer then he can give some innovative idea because he having more time to thank but when fixed time provide for them the he is not able to think apart from his work, so depending upon person time should be provide to do work. |

| According to me, Fixed timings is better, because while doing a project we need to have sudden meetings and lots and lots of doubts to be cleared. This is possible only by using fixed timings. If we take our schools we have fixed timings this helps the management, staffs and students for taking classes etc. , so fixed timing is best. |

| As per my regard fixed timing is the best one. The fixed timing mainly indicates the discipline of the company. If it is flexible timing then the person will not be perfectly scheduled. |

| In my opinion, the timings can only be decided depending upon the nature of work that one does. For some type of work the flexible timings may not fulfill the demand of the business like the scenarios where an entire team have to work in sync and there are dependencies on inter-modules of project. So in such a case we have to go with the idea of a appropriate timings suitable for the business requirements. Also we cannot ignore the advantages of flexible timings where the as it helps the person to plan out the requirements in an appropriate manner and can reduce unnecessary spending of efforts on useless things. |

Flexi time is good, because an employee can plan the time schedule according to his comfortable.
There is no limit of time for execute a task. If any employee has the ability to work more than 10/12 hours he can also continue. One can use the 24 hours by taking 2 or 3 times breaks if possible. And also for a student the time should not be fixed, when he feelings well then he can continue his study.
But there is a problem for some people that, if the time schedule is not fixed then, there is some possibility to increase time spent on one task. |

In my opinion, flexible and fixed work timing depends on the type of job and situation. Jobs like manufacturing, clerical, bank jobs and support jobs must have fix timing. Because these kind of jobs required quick response and continuous operation.
But like software jobs, marketing can have flexible timing. Employee can use there energy in other innovative tasks. But priority should be work completion with in timeline and with good quality. Your availability should be 100% for your task but not necessary for your team lead or manager. |

According to my knowledge, Flexi Timings is better than the Fixed Timings.
Because If people working on Flexible Timings, their mind is very fresh. Then, They do more work and that work has "Quality".They have enthusiasm to do splendid work.
Mainly in women point of you Flexible Timings very Convenient.Because they have lot of work in home and office.So, she must handle both work.
If people working on these Flexible Timings, if people have more work, without hesitating easily they do that work also.
If people working on Fixed Timings, in their mind has some intension to go and come on that time. So, they concentrated on that timings only. They do little bit of work on that time and if the time is over, without completion of work also they go to their home.

Why we have fix time in our colleges n schools? they prepare us for corporate world where the timings are normally fixed. Fix timings make people more disciplined. In fixed timing we know that this is the where we have to work hard and this is the time to spend with family or enjoy.
In case of flexible-timing the member of the team will come at different time n the team will get lesser time to interact with each other. The people will do lunch or take breaks at different time n flow of informal information will b less. Which is not good. The employees get less time to spend with their colleagues. So the timings should be fixed. |

| I personally is a workaholic and I prefer working till my work isn't over and at times I prefer to start early morning so, my point is a person can't predict when he gonna be tired or when he would b having a desire to work so by allowing a 24/7 office the person can come any time and start working and finish when he feels tired N how about if in noon he feels like going out or taking a nape n then starting afresh after a hour or so he can do it in flexi scheduled office. |

Hi to All. Well as per me the question here should not be "Flexi Timings or Fixed Timings - Which is better at Work?". The question should be "What can be done to provide employee a better work culture ! ". Because in case if FLEXI timing is implemented in offices then it will directly mean 24/7 service to the employer.
Because every now and then somebody may be there in the office and he might want some work, some meeting or some advice from you. So as to accomplish the same, the employee will have to be on phone / on Mail 24/7 which will directly make your life more miserable then it already was. So certainly FLEXI timings would not be a very good option unless you are not a team player. |

Believe me knowing tomorrow and working same things and performing same routine is not boring at all. It is more enjoyable. What do you say? |

| Fixed time is better than flix time because it shows the panchuality about your work and also shows value of time at right place. If you are panchual about your time so can get success or you can get better oppourtunities at exact time what you want. And a successful businessmen always having time panchual personality. A perfect business men can never flix it time, he always care his work with time and also well know about time management and its panchuality. |

Speaking in a company centric view - As long as no quality and quantity issues with regard to production arise we can have flexi timings..
but we do not live to work we work to live so one would always be on the part of discussion to have flexi-timings but i believe that flexi timings mean first step to lose a rythm of doing work. which would be followed by indisciple slowly creeping in and loosing the concentration on work...thereby a disaster probably..
We can have flexi timings for "Honest people" when i say honest who knows who can never compromise on honesty so it sounds practically impossible...
but this would lead to another question arising admist all the confusion where one would argue saying why should one work beyond the work hours even when the situation demands and it would follow with the rythm of work getting disturbed ,and disciple not being followed by abiding the work hours ...so i would say good to have flexi timinggs during non demanding times and i believe this is again debatable.. |

| Flexi timing may be effective only in case of of jobs where we are given some work to be completed individually and time duration is fixed.then we can personally fix our time of work.But in most of the cases the person fail to complete the work within the time schedule.So,until we are not pressurized to do the work our performance become low and the company suffers.Efficient running of the company suffers and it runs under loss.Whatever may be the job time should be fixed either individually or by the authority.from overall point of view the time should be fixed for execution of work within stipulated time. |

| Flexi timing and fixed timings cannot be applicable for all kinds of jobs, like in software where an individualis assigned a work, and it doesnot matter if he does it at home or come to office to do it, how he does it whether in a day he inputs 15 hrs or 8 hrs. its whole individuals prerogative to manage his time and deliver the result in stipulated period frame. However it is not the case in case of interdependent job work, unless one step is cleared other step could not be executed in this case all who are invoved have to fix their time schedule. |

| Yes surely it depends on the nature of work assigned by a personnel to us and the type of industry we are sorking in. It seems to be very awkward that we are studying in night having no light in our room and eating bananas with tea. The flexibility of work should be like that it should cope up with our personal and professional life. Finally i would just say it depends upon the complexity of any work that we should have flexible timings or not. |

| First it the nature of work that will decide wheather the work can be alloted in a flexible way. Say a retail banker, he cannot work in a fexible timing because the branch hours are fixed. In the case of say a software professional it may be possible to do work at his convenence. If there is a scope for flexi timing the organisation should do all possible ways to make it a reality. Secondly the work has to assigned properly and monitored throughly and for flexi timing the need to do that is greatly increased. |

In my opinion, the work should be properly scheduled and should be finished in the fixed time. Flexy time reduces stress both positive and negative stress so our mind becomes more relaxed and failed to do the work on time and finally creates a big tension and ineffecitive completion of work.
Fixed time gives positive stress so that work would be completed smartly within the time period. |

| Well, Sowjanya you are partly right according to me. Unless and untill there is proper routine at the workplace the assigned task or project may hardly be executed within the stipulated time period. So I think when you deal with certain important parameters then Flexi timing will hardly execute imporant task. We cannot compromise the work schedule with the personal luxury . To increase our qualifications and all, we have to arrange the time ourseleves only . |

Flexi timing is better because More and more employees are looking at flexible working hours as the best option for managing their personal life with work as the red line of work-life balance gets thinner.
From the employee perspective, it offers him/her the flexibility to pursue higher education and other vocations, spend more time with his/her family and also ensures work-life balance.
The bottom line is clear, it is no more about how many hours you are at office. The only thing that matters is how productive you are and how smartly you execute your tasks. And this can be done from the comfort of your own home. |
