The article argues that the rise of remote work in the UK, driven by the pandemic, has transformed from a necessity into a cultural norm. Working from home is no longer seen merely as a flexible choice but has instead become viewed as a workers' right or entitlement. This shift creates complexities in employee relations and potentially dilutes the focus on productivity. Experts suggest that hybrid work is becoming the standard expectation, complicating discussions surrounding its implementation and true effectiveness.
The issue of working from home has transcended practicality, evolving into a cultural expectation rather than a response to pandemic conditions, complicating employer-employee dynamics.
Remote work is now viewed not just as a flexible option but as a fundamental right, disconnecting it from its original context of the pandemic.
This evolving perception of remote work could lead to misunderstandings, as it becomes less about productivity and more about benefits in terms of workplace culture.
