The Working Families Best Practice Awards
The Best Practice Awards are your chance to tell us about what you do to develop and support flexible and family-friendly working in your organisation. Each year the Award winners are chosen by our panel of expert judges from all the entries. We hope that you enjoy reading about these different companies, and that perhaps these case studies will provoke new ideas about the way that family friendly and flexible working can be shaped in your own organisation. These are best practice examples; we hope that you can take something from them.
