The pandemic-driven work revolution has brought a lot of changes. One of the most consequential ones is the shift in people’s expectations of how, when and where they want to work. The trend towards creating more individualized workplaces is not a new phenomenon. It was in the making long before the pandemic (especially among tech companies and other innovative organizations). But it wasn’t until COVID-19 triggered the largest global remote work experiment that we began to see many more companies offering more customized work experience. They have begun to experiment with what we now call hybrid or flexible working. Is the hybrid model here to stay? The hybrid model, which encapsulates, among other things, the mix of both onsite and remote work, is proving popular with: Companies – according to a TinyPulse survey of HR leaders, 62.8% see hybrid work as the most productive approach to their companies and as per Accenture’s findings, 63% of high-growth businesses work in a hybrid way.And employees: according to EY’s 2021 Work Reimagined Employee Survey, nine in ten employees want flexibility in where and when they work. Given this popularity, hybrid work is here to stay, for the time being at the very least.
