The nature of how we work has undergone a momentous transformation over the past 18 months. What many believed would be a temporary remote working exercise to keep people safe has resulted in organisations overhauling the way they operate, from where and when their people work, to the purpose of their office space.
But it’s not just how and where people work that’s been keeping employers busy. The roles and responsibilities of HR teams, line managers and business leaders have also changed. Being a great employer as the economy recovers will involve a lot more than meeting minimum requirements around flexible working requests and health and safety regulations – mental, physical and financial wellbeing are also now part of a conscientious employer’s remit.
