The Growing Importance of Remote Work Policies to a Successful Global Talent Strategy
Responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, corporate leaders had to quickly adapt their businesses to employees working from home. In reality, while the majority did work from home, others were sheltered in a different location—some with family and others in a second home or elsewhere. Additionally, some chose to sell their homes or break leases and move permanently to another location.
What arose as a result of the pandemic was a need for corporations to become more flexible than ever to allow a portion—if not all—of their workforce to work remotely, either some or all of the time.
Reimagining Employee Retention Post-Pandemic: Group Moves in a New Climate
Everyone has been impacted in one way or another over the past year. Our lives have changed, and most of us are working very differently than we were a year ago.
Now that companies are searching for some form of normalcy, a “new norm” will begin to take form for most organizations around the globe. It appears that remote work may be the new norm for some companies. On the other hand, due to the nature of particular industries, some companies require their employees to be on site. Furthermore, those coming to terms with a hybrid approach often wish to focus on retaining their critical talent.
