Our vision for the Flex Index
Our vision is to provide a single source of truth on workplace flexibility for every company worldwide.
Every company has a stance on workplace flexibility. But few companies make their office requirements public, and every company describes their flexible work policy differently. There are numerous stakeholders who benefit from bringing these office requirements to light.
The Flex Index today covers 100M employees across ... companies.
Who is the Flex Index for?
Job seekers
that want to know what a company’s office requirements are
Employers
that want to highlight their workplace flexibility to prospective hires
Journalists
that need a reliable data source on trends in company office requirements
Researchers
focused on the “future of work” and how evolving workplace flexibility will impact many parts of how we live and work

METHODOLOGY
We leverage a wide variety of inputs, including company-created and managed profiles, publicly available data, and supplementary research sources.
Learn more about our methodology here
The topline office requirements (the ones listed when searching for the company or as the headline on a company page) reflect the most common office requirements for corporate employees.
Companies can add detail to their company page to reflect job functions, roles, or geographies where there are different office requirements from the corporate policy. This includes opportunities for fully remote work, roles that are required to be fully on site, or other hybrid work arrangements.
HOW THE FLEX INDEX WORKS
We offer a number of different ways to filter search results:
- By office requirements
- By industry
- By company size
Company representatives can add their company after creating a user profile on Flex Index. Representatives are verified based on email address and company domain via a 2-factor authentication or SSO.
Company representatives can include details such as office requirements, who sets office requirements, opportunities for remote work, and office and WFH benefits.
Scoop proactively reviews every updated profile to ensure accuracy and data quality, occasionally reaching out for additional information or verification.
