Wie viel Zeitautonomie bieten flexible Arbeitszeiten?

Abstract

The article investigates the extent to which flexible forms of working time offer the employees time autonomy. Current results from the empirical research are discussed and observed deficiencies are presented. For the most widespread form of flexible working time, time accounts, document analysis from nearly 600 company-based agreements shows some potential for time autonomy, but this is limited by operational concerns. Newer statutory and tariff regulations on working time options promise more time autonomy, because unlike time accounts, they give the employees forms of legal rights. Overall, empirical research on time autonomy is still in its infancy. Above all, methodological aspects display deficits.
