Cyber and Fraud Centre – Scotland has embraced ‘flexible working’ becoming one of the first organisations in the country to achieve the new employee wellbeing accreditation.
The centre, a leading and trusted provider of cyber services, training and advice, achieved the Flexible Workplace Accreditation developed by Flexibility Works with support from The Robertson Trust.
The accreditation recognises employers that are embedding flexible working practices across their organisation. It highlights organisations that are moving beyond policy, creating working environments that support both business performance and employee wellbeing.
The centre is among a cohort of organisations across Scotland recognised for their approach to flexible working, spanning a range of sizes and sectors.
Jude McCorry, CEO at the Cyber and Fraud Centre – Scotland comments, “Achieving Flexible Workplace Accreditation reflects how we support our people to do great work. Flexible working is an important part of how we operate as an organisation, and we’re pleased to see that reflected in this recognition.”
Flexible working is increasingly seen as a key driver of employee engagement, retention and inclusion. Research from Flexibility Works shows that flexible working is now common across Scotland, but approaches vary widely by role and sector. The accreditation provides a structured framework to help organisations develop and embed flexible working practices, supporting long-term cultural change.
Lisa Gallagher, co-founder of Flexibility Works, added: “Flexible working isn’t just life-changing for individuals, it also brings real benefits to organisations, from engagement to productivity. This accreditation recognizes organisations that are putting flexible working into practice.”
