Enhancing hybrid workforce productivity has become a major goal for organizations since workforces are opting for opportunities full of flexible working. But why there is so much fuss around increasing productivity and that too for workers who are away?

Remote and hybrid work may lead to higher rates of employee burnout. Take measures to keep employees satisfied and productive.

As the world navigates towards the new normal, most companies are rolling out a hybrid working policy. This comes as a report by the UK’s Chartered Institute of Professional Development (CIPD) reveals that two-fifths (40%) of employers expect more than half of their workers to work regularly from home post-pandemic. Hybrid working can improve work-life balance so that staff remain motivated and work better.

Many businesses have discovered the benefits of remote and hybrid teams over the last year. With the potential to boost productivity, motivation, and collaboration, it is clear that they are both here to stay. Even after a return to normalcy. For example, Microsoft announced its plans for the future of its hybrid work model last year. And enabled all staff to work up to 50% of their time from home without needing approval.

Research shows that 41% of employers will adopt hybrid working within two years. And only 30% expect to have their workforce fully back in the office before 2023. Despite the reactionary stance of some companies, the way businesses operate has inevitably changed, and the hybrid model will only continue to gain traction. Even the UK Government recognizes the need to be flexible as it explores the idea of granting new employees the right to request flexible working.
