Can fewer hours actually lead to more productivity? Results from a trial of a four-day work week in the public sector show that it can. Staff reported better mental health, better productivity, and a good balance between work and personal life. Sick day requests also dropped during the trial period. The companies will extend the four-day work week beyond the allotted research time.

The tug-of-war between office and remote work isn't slowing down. Research done by the British Chamber of Commerce (BCC) shows that 1 in 10 SMEs lost staff because they called everyone back to the office. Despite this, 48% of businesses intend to move forward with everyone working on site on all working days within the next 12 months. It's not the same for all industries. B2B businesses are leaving the door open for hybrid work.

Hybrid work has changed how we connect, manage, and lead. Leaders can no longer measure performance by the number of people who go into the office and their clock-in times. With some team members working remotely, leaders need to move their focus to outcomes. Health and safety have also expanded beyond the office walls. Some employers have provided assistance for ergonomic setups at home.
