Descriptive analysis involved the use of means, while multiple regression was used to test the hypotheses. The results revealed that flexitime had a positive and significant influence on performance of academic staff. This led to the conclusion that that flexitime is a significant factor for the performance of academic staff. Therefore, it was recommended that managers of organisations such as polytechnics should establish flexible working arrangements to enhance performance of employees.
