Companies who do not offer employees flexible working fail to recruit and retain the best talent, a report has said. Demand for flexible jobs massively outstrips supply, according to recruitment agency Timewise. The report said 11.9% of jobs are advertised as flexible, while 34% of jobless Scots sought flexible work.

Could naked pictures banish body shamers? The mum of three and fiancé to Celtic star Kris Commons has released two versions of the same nude image - one professionally retouched and the other unedited, to show what a difference subtle editing can have.

Is it impossible to enjoy a holiday without alcohol? A recent survey suggests that nearly 60% of those who drink more whilst on a break say it is "part of going on holiday".
