TechTarget is a media company that implemented a "No Attendance" policy for its 400+ employees. Under this policy, employees are given quarterly goals and work flexibility, focusing on results rather than physical presence. The policy aims to reduce stress while allowing employees to better care for their families and balance work obligations. However, the policy requires effective communication and good employee relations, and may be difficult to implement for companies requiring face-to-face customer interactions or where employee presence is needed for decisions. For the policy to be successful, companies must have proper staffing, ensure employee fit with company culture, and create a positive work environment through training.
