Why should you make WorkFlex a mandatory part of your process?
To protect employees and the company, WorkFlex should be mandatory to:
Avoid non-compliance with employment and company guidelines, which could lead to official warnings or dismissal.
Prevent financial liabilities for corporate or employment tax issues.
Eliminate penalties or fines for social security non-compliance, which could result in lengthy processes and loss of resources.
