A study shows that happy employees put in more hours but remain less prone to stress than uhappy employees.
What makes them happy? Easier unscheduled time off, schedule flexibility and better telecommuting options. What makes them unhappy? Too much work, their boss’s behavior and long hours.
Wow, that sure makes it simple, huh? Flexibility definitely makes me happier, and yes, I do work more than if I were stuck in the 8-to-5 world.
