The ROWE and Work-Life Effect

ROWE (Results-Only Work Environment) is a management approach where employees are evaluated based on their productivity and results, rather than the hours they work. It emphasizes trust and flexibility, allowing people to choose when and where they work as long as they meet their goals. The Work-Life Effect refers to the positive impact this flexibility can have—improving job satisfaction, reducing stress, and helping individuals better balance their professional and personal lives. Together, these concepts promote a healthier, more motivated workforce by prioritizing outcomes over time spent at a desk.
