'Ego-driven' demands | Why workers are 'ignoring' boardroom return-to-office orders

Workers are 'ignoring' corporate demands for them to come into the office for a minimum number of days each week, in favour of their own hybrid structures, according to a new report.

City AM reports that workers and managers in the financial and professional services sectors are employing their own bespoke working routines that fit the needs of their specific jobs.

This was discovered as part of a study which conducted interviews with 100 workers from major firms such as Goldman Sachs, NatWest, and PwC.

Key points include that remote-first policies had no detrimental impact on productivity – a finding which is consistent with many studies on hybrid and home working in recent months.
