Polyconcept Group is a multinational company headquartered in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, USA. It is a world leader in gifts and promotional products. Its products are sold in more than 100 countries. Polyconcept Group entered the Chinese market as early as 1994, and has opened offices in Shanghai, Shenzhen,Hongkong with a total of more than 200 employees. With the continuous expansion of business, how to attract and motivate excellent management and chnical personnel is a challenge to Polyconcept. Against this backdrop, Polyconcept implemented its explorations and novations, took the lead in implementing flexible work system, increased employee welfare annual leave and other measures, which have greatly motivated the employees.
Take the most common working hours of employees for example. Most companies now work “9:00am to 5:00pm”. However,the "one-fits-all" working hours are not suitable for all employees. Furthermore, taking into account daily traffic during rush hours, the traditional “9:00am to 5:00pm” working hours cannot meet the actual needs of enterprises and employees. In November 2018, as initiated    by Polyconcept management, the company began to adopt flexible working hour system. Employees can enjoy flexibility to arrange their office hours, no longer subject to the "9:00am to 5:00pm" restrictions. This "flexible working system" is still very rare in the current market.
Why flexible working system? Mr. Nicolas Villemonteix, Polyconcept China’s Chief Executive Officer,    said: “Flexible work system offers employees greater freedom to choose how they work, giving them more flexibility to do their work and take care of their personal lives. Through the flexible work system, not only to achieve a change in the way of    work, but also to    promote the company's new culture    (i.e. performance-driven), thereby stimulating more productivity and creativity. Modern IT technology is sufficient to support this new approach, what we lack is the corresponding company culture”.
Today, more and more enterprises put stimulating the creativity of employees in the first place in talent management. In February 2019, PricewaterhouseCoopers announced the launch of "WeFlex" (flexible work) in Hong Kong, Macau and mainland China, allowing employees greater flexibility in working hours. In other countries, Barclays Bank, Telstra and other companies are also the first to implement flexible work. But in reality, many enterprises still have doubts about whether flexible work system can achieve the desired results, such as how to organize team work, how to assess employees, deal with staff absence, etc. At the beginning of the implementation, Polyconcept also    anticipated the possible challenges and prepared corresponding solutions, including soliciting employees' opinions, adopting supporting IT facilities for time management,etc.Flexible working system not only gives employees some flexibility, but also ensures that they work in the office for a relatively fixed period of time in order to ensure teamwork and communication.The employees' working hours are counted weekly to make sure there is no absences. At the same time, employees will not work more hours per day or per week than the corresponding limit of labor law.
“After the introduction of flexible working system, it has been warmly welcomed by everyone. We will continue to refine the system and explore ways to increase employees’ satisfaction and attract more talents", said by Mr. Edwin Eckhardt, director of Human Resources at    Polyconcept. The company will also increase the welfare annual leave for employees, in order to create a flexible working environment, the company has recently adopted 4 stray cats in Shanghai and Shenzhen office, which is well received by our employees, and in the future will also anticipate a more healthy, humanized work and communication.
