Chris Ellison stated, 'I want to hold them captive all day long. I don't want them leaving the building. I don't want them walking down the road for a cup of coffee.' This reflects his belief that the traditional office environment is necessary for productivity in the mining sector.
Ellison criticized remote work trends, saying, 'I have a no-work-from-home policy. I wish everyone else would get on board with that – the sooner the better.' He emphasizes that the industry can't sustain flexible working arrangements.
He mentioned ongoing developments at their headquarters, saying, 'We've got a restaurant in there, we've also got a gym, and we've got other facilities that keep them glued in there,' highlighting the company’s efforts to enhance the office experience.
Commenting on emerging working hour trends, he remarked, 'We can't have people working three days, and picking up five days a week pay.' Ellison expressed concerns about the sustainability of reduced workweeks.
