Les données du projet montrent que parmi les 190 économies, seules 42 (22 %) disposent d'une législation permettant aux employés de bénéficier d'horaires flexibles, tandis que 61 (32 %) prévoient des dispositions légales les autorisant à demander à télétravailler. Cependant, à peine 12 % des pays (23 sur 190) offrent les deux options, signe d'écarts importants en matière de flexibilité au travail.

The WBL data show that, among 190 economies, only 42 (22%) have legislation allowing employees to benefit from flexible time arrangements, while 61 (32%) have legal provisions permitting them to request remote work. However, a mere 12% of economies (23 out of 190) offer both options, indicating a significant gap when it comes to work flexibility.

Regulations and public services influence companies’ decisions on hiring and impact workers’ wellbeing by providing good jobs and growth opportunities. That is why laws and policies must be grounded in data and evidence to build inclusive and resilient labor markets.
