Hybrid remote working simply means that there’s a mix of both in-office and remote work. The pandemic ushered in new, never-before-seen levels of remote working. People who used to be in the office were suddenly WFH. Now, with the worst of this particular pandemic (hopefully) behind us, many executives and leaders want to see people come back to the office, because of improvements in collaboration and communication. But, workers have gotten a taste of remote work life. And while they may not want to work from home five days a week, they also don’t want to completely give up remote working. Enter the hybrid remote work model. While some companies are returning to a full five days in the office, many are going hybrid. “The first step was to discuss the options with our teams to get a general understanding as to how and what people expect as restrictions are lifted. From this, we decided to create a hybrid approach. Now, we’re working with all staff members to iron out our hybrid model and what the ratios will be. For now, it looks like we’ll stick with two days in the office, and three days out of the office. We have enough space for everyone to be back at the same time, so we’re encouraging people to keep their two office days to Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays so we can interact more.” Robert Hourie, Director of Data, Infrastructure, and Security Recruitment at GemPool What is the hybrid remote work model? 6 gett.com
