ABSTRACT
This study investigates the effect of flexible work arrangements on employee productivity at BGD Engineering, a company in the service sector. It focuses on four key forms of flexibility: hybrid work, flexible hours, flexible practices, and work-from-home. A descriptive research design was used, collecting data from 103 employees through structured questionnaires. Statistical analyses, including correlation and regression, revealed a strong positive relationship (r = 0.840) between FWAs and productivity. The regression model showed that FWAs account for 70.6% of the variation in employee productivity. The study also considers demographic factors such as age, gender, marital status, and experience. Findings suggest that customized flexible arrangements enhance job satisfaction, engagement, and performance. Organizations are encouraged to invest in digital tools and inclusive policies to support flexible work. The research contributes to understanding how modern work models affect employee outcomes. Further studies are recommended to explore additional factors like mental well-being and leadership style.

KEYWORDS: Hybrid Work, Flexible Working Hours, Flexible Work Practices, Work From Home, EmployeeProductivity.
