description The paper aims to analyse the main characteristics of work flexibility in the Romanian companies using a sample of 220 employees, analysing the contractual, functional, wage and alike the working time flexibility. The empirical results revealed that the main forms of work flexibility present in the Romanian companies are team work, computer usage and teleworking. Among the main forms of work flexibility, working time flexibility and contractual flexibility are not much present in the Romanian organizations. The functional flexibility relating on training of employees, according to the training needs of the company and on the working team autonomy is present into a small extent in the Romanian companies. Among the main measures pointed out by the Romanian employees to increase the level of work flexibility, wage flexibility and working-time flexibility would be highly appreciated.
