Working from home not going anywhere as in-office mandates fall
www.abc.net.au
"Return to office" demands appear to have peaked, with research noting a fall in mandates for a certain amount of in-person days. Five years from the start of the COVID pandemic, remote and hybrid models of working are now normalised.

“Return to office” demands may have peaked, with employers accepting remote, work-from-home and hybrid working, research from the Australian HR Institute has found.

A survey of human resources professionals shows employers’ demands for full-time staff to be in the office between three to five days are falling.

What’s next?

More than 80 per cent of survey respondents expect that hybrid working levels will increase or stay the same in the coming two years.

    Hybrid is the worst. I mean its better than making me be there all the time, but it also lets people get away with all the bad habits: mixed in office / at home meetings, lack of documentation, unclear directives, favoritism, etc.

    Hybrid means that the people are still unable to figure out how to communicate effectively, that they are going to start saying nonsense like “institutional knowledge” because they let people get away with it.
