Environment and Culture

Environment and Culture

Use of skills, proper tools and technology to be productive, connection with co-workers, level of input, and autonomy and control in the performance of duties. This also includes the culture established, modeled and reinforced by an organization’s leadership and management teams, as well as  the qualities, management competencies, and communication practices of individuals responsible for managing people and the quality of relationships employees have with direct supervisors.

How others put this principle into practice

• A policy giving workers the right to request flexible schedules for caregiving and requiring employers to collaborate with workers on scheduling. The Family Friendly Workplace Ordinance, in addition to other ordinances in 2015, regulated hours, retention and scheduling for part-time employees in formula retail establishments with at least 40 stores worldwide and 20 employees in San Francisco.
