Avoiding the office commute is just one reason why working from home suits many workers with disability better. Employers need to take a nuanced approach to workplace flexibility.
Workplaces are changing, offering more flexibility than ever, says a UNSW Canberra report. But not everyone has fallen in love with hybrid ways of working.
Most Australians working from home were happy to do so before COVID hit, but research has identified several key factors in whether these arrangements work out well.
There are two very different options when it comes to the future of knowledge work, but UNSW Business School experts say it is up to us to move towards the future we want.
We asked 1400 managers to rate working from home. Some 8.4% said their teams were less productive, 57% said it was the same, and 34% said it was higher.
Employers have long feared that working from home makes employees less productive. An analysis of 3 million workers in 16 cities during lockdowns suggests the opposite.
There are several vital considerations business leaders must be clear on before they embark on a journey of digital transformation, says a UNSW organisational change expert.
