It’s not difficult to see how modern working practices put a strain on family relationships, but at least nearly three-quarters of small and medium-sized businesses in the UK are attempting to make things easier for parents by offering more flexible working options.
Over half of working mums said they’d want to work away from the office, while nearly nine in ten dads said the same.
Dads said that flexible working would make the most positive difference to their family life in the first year after their child’s birth.
