Return to office | Firms with reduced flexibility facing staff exodus, say recruiters

Recruiters have reported a talent exodus from companies now offering their employees less flexibility in where they work.

Research among more than 500 in-house and agency recruiters revealed a surge in applications from employees at companies requiring their teams to be in a city centre office five days a week. Two thirds (67%) had seen an increase in candidates looking for new positions following mandates from current employers that require them to spend more time at a central office.
