Council calls in Vodafone to boost flexible working

West Berkshire council is using a scheme designed and implemented by Vodafone to extend flexible working to 85 per cent of staff by 2011.

The scheme also aims to cut property costs at the council by 40 per cent by reducing the amount of office space it needs.

Vodafone’s business service consultants followed more than 100 staff to identify their cultural, technical and training needs. With the resulting flexible working framework being governed by mobile policies aligned to both teams and the council’s overall business objectives.

Nick Carter, chief executive at West Berkshire council, stated that the aim was to use time and space more effectively, maximise the use of technology and gain benefits for staff, the organisation and the people of West Berkshire.

Staff working flexibly can now access email and applications from schools, health centres, homes and offices using Vodafone’s mobile network or any secure wireless network.
