What Is Hybrid Working?
5th Dec 2022
What are the benefits of hybrid working?
The hybrid working model offers employees and employers some great benefits. We’ve delved into some of these benefits below:Improved mental well-being
Having a balance of at-home and in-office work makes for a balanced week. Sometimes working from home might have you stuck in a rut, living in loungewear and not wanting to get ready for the day - we know. Being in the office can help to break down that cycle; you’ll be able to gain social elements back into your life through face-to-face interaction with team members whilst enjoying the benefits of working from home a few times each week.Reduce office costs
With fewer employees in the office full-time, you’ll likely be able to cut down on space, thus saving costs. You’ll also be helping to reduce your carbon footprint - if you want to learn more about how flexible working can benefit the environment, you can check out one of our previous blogs.Saved commuting time and costs
Employees will save time that would usually be spent commuting to and from work to utilise how they wish. Whether that be opting for a lay-in, starting work earlier or later, going to the gym or for a walk, doing the school drop-off / pick-up, or getting household chores completed - all of which help lead to an improved work-life blend. Not to mention cost savings, as we know trains are expensive and can get very crowded, fuel prices are rising and rush hour traffic is no fun.Focus with fewer distractions
Some individuals might find it easier to focus in the office, and others may find it easier at home. Having a balanced workweek means that you’ll still have days where you’ll be able to get your head down with fewer distractions.What companies offer hybrid working?
