As we navigate the post-pandemic landscape, one term has become the most relevant and the most controversial in the corporate world: HYBRID WORKING. This model, which combines remote and in-office work, is being touted as the future of work. But is it fact or fallacy?
The Case for Hybrid Working
There’s no denying the undeniable appeal of hybrid working. A study by Microsoft’s Work Trend Index found that over 70% of workers want flexible remote work options to continue. This model provides employees with the best of both worlds: the flexibility of working from home and the social interaction of the office.
Hybrid working can also benefit employers. According to this report by McKinsey, companies that embrace this model can access a broader talent pool, reduce real estate costs, and increase productivity and collaboration.
