After a year of hybrid working, companies and workers in Singapore grapple with possible return to daily office lifeSeven of eight workers who spoke to TODAY said they would not want a return to the old way of working, as they have seen the many benefits of being able to mix working from home and the office.
Before the Covid-19 pandemic he had to report to the office by 9am each day and he used to splurge on ride-hailing services sometimes just to clock in on time. From Thursday, the bank began piloting a programme to have up to around 80 per cent of its Singapore employees take on flexible work arrangements.
Dean Tong, the head of group human resources at UOB, said: “At the heart of our new hybrid model are the lessons we have learned over the last year as people adjusted to prolonged work-from-home arrangements.” Google, for example, said staff can continue working from home until September, but beyond that, they would have to apply for an extension to work remotely based on exceptional circumstances or hardship.
“For the rest, their return to the office will be stepped up gradually, as we monitor the situation in Singapore and adjust CAG’s work arrangements as needed.”One of the big four accountancy firms, PriceWaterhouseCooper, announced on Thursday that its employees around the world will be able to work from home a couple of days a week and start as early or as late as they like.
