Many firms are now asking their staff to come to the office only a few days a week.

NEW YORK: Working from home might have been the norm at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, but with the loosening of restrictions and the popularity of hybrid work, companies and their workers will need to adapt yet again.However, analysts said hybrid work brings fresh challenges.

“There’s going to be some discussions about how we do this. Some of those things aren’t going to work, others will.”Nearly a year ago, less than 40 percent of New York office workers had returned to their workplace.According to a survey by non-profit organisation Partnership for New York City, roughly half of office workers are back at their desks on an average weekday. But less than 10 percent of people are back in the office full-time.

Since then, Zoom’s shares have fallen about 90 per cent, as it faces increased competition. It also has to contend with a workforce returning to offices and is less reliant on its product.

Observers said the strength of the labour market could have a bearing on whether some employees return to the office.
