Unsurprisingly the move by employers to rein in extensive working from home, is not only breeding resentment among workers who have grown to like hybrid working but looks likely to lead to more cases centred on remote working going to employment tribunals.

As I've noted so often, universities have extensive knowledge & experience of the pros & cons of hybrid work (academics have done it for decades) yet no-one seems to want to learn from that experience?

() mandate is backfiring on a key federal agency
In offices where routine has been curtailed, a staggering 81% of respondents admitted they were actively seeking alternative opportunities. This dissatisfaction stands in contrast to offices where some level of telework is maintained, where only 42% of respondents expressed a desire to leave their current positions.

The move back to the office is certainly underway, with working from home being de-normalised & back to an exception (if now more frequent).

But what is the impact on those who for health or mobility reasons are only able to work from home.

In many ways WFH was (accidentally?) a boon for 'disabled' employment, allowing many to access jobs that would have been difficult if attendance at office was required.

How will their opportunities fare in the move away from WFH?

"Return-to-office mandates at some of the most powerful #tech companies — #Apple, #Microsoft and #SpaceX — were followed by a spike in departures among the most senior, tough-to-replace talent...

What they found was a strong correlation between senior-level employees departing directly after a mandate was implemented... and in many cases, they went to #work for direct competitors."
