According to the 2008 National Study of Employers, of the 20 options for working flexibly, "employers with 50 or more employees most frequently allow at least some groups of workers to have control over when they take breaks (84%) and change their starting and quitting times within some range of hours (79%). They are next most likely to allow at least some groups of employees to return to work gradually after leaves for childbirth and adoption (77%), take time off for education or training to improve job skills (74%) and take time off for important family and personal needs without loss of pay (73%)." (Table 3, p. 12)

The 2008 National Study of Employers (NSE) sample includes 1,100 employers with 50 or more employees--77 percent are for profit employers and 23 percent are nonprofit organizations; 40 percent operate at only one location, while 60 percent have operations at more than one location. Interviews were conducted on behalf of Families and Work Institute by Harris Interactive, Inc. This is the third NSE; previous studies were conducted in 1998 and 2005.
