Lots of studies have been done on the mental load women carry. While not precisely a gender issue, flexibility in the workplace may positively impact women more than men. Want to increase morale and productivity? Sit down individually with your staff, and ask them to set their schedules regarding hours and days in the office. No employee wants to frequently ask for this or feel like they are doing something different than their colleagues. Giving flexibility "as needed" isn't enough anymore.
