BBC Radio 4 - The Bottom Line, Hybrid working

How can companies effectively mix work at home and in the office?

White-collar staff have spent 18 months working from home - so is our workforce ready to go back to the office? Or is hybrid working the solution?

In 2020, the pandemic hit, and the world locked down. Suddenly white-collar staff went from working in the office, to working remotely. But now we are opening up, will people want to return? Hybrid working has become the buzzword of employers across the country, allowing individuals to have more flexibility over where they work. So how likely is this to function effectively? How do businesses manage staff and productivity? And will there ever be anyone in the office on Fridays....? Join Evan Davis and guests to find out.
