The workplace NOW

The majority of the workforce is currently working remotely across industries. Large organizations and the Service industry have shifted to remote working at a faster pace and a higher percentage, allowing more flexibility to their operations.

The Impact of Working Remotely

Larger organizations are mostly positive towards remote working, as massive cost-cutting of workplace real estate, operational and maintenance costs is certain where office renovation is concerned. Our Global survey shows minor differences between employment levels, with middle management being more positive, and major differences between industries, with IT being all for remote working and Hospitality taking a rather negative stance, expectedly.
(!) Our research team suggests that WFH and an increasing need for agility will result in leaner organizations.XXXX

Measures to welcome the workforce back

Most organizations claim to be prepared to welcome employees back to an open office workplace, having taken all necessary measures to ensure safety at work. That’s an optimistic outlook as very few organizations have actually taken measures other than what local laws and regulations mandate, regarding ergonomic office safety.

Towards a new Workplace

Half of organizations are working to redefine their post pandemic office design due to this Workplace Revolution. At the same time 1 out of 10 organizations will be reducing or discarding physical workplaces altogether in the immediate future, which would cause a major disruption in Commercial Real Estate. One out of three companies will remodel offices to adapt to new needs, with larger organizations leading the way.

(!) Our research team suggests that Banking and Financial Services are about to be disrupted most as technology, AI and Digital Transformation explode.XXXX

Impact of WFH on Performance

COVID-19 has brought unprecedented challenges. Many companies internationally have risen to the occasion, acting swiftly to safeguard employees and migrate to a new way of working that even the most extreme business-continuity plans hadn’t envisioned. Across industries, leaders will use lessons from this large-scale work-from-home experiment to reimagine how work is done—and what role offices should play—in creative and bold ways.

Plans on redefinition of workplace in the near future.

The first reaction to the Pandemic

Only 10% of organizations were impartial or felt that they did not need to take special measures, toward enhancing performance, office safety or workplace health.
Only 7% of the organizations resolved in price reductions due to the effects of COVID-19 circumstances.

Working remotely… forever

Especially in larger organizations, 3 out of 4 see more than a quarter of their people permanently working remotely, while for 2 out of 10, this increases to half of them staying away from the office forever. Banking, Financial Services and the Hospitality sector, expect significant reduction of headcount in a year, whereas IT is expecting a boom of 30%.
(!) Larger organizations will reduce headcount while small and medium sized ones seem to be ready to absorb them.XXXX

Major threats to consider

Top management is losing sleep over figuring out how to redefine processes and optimize new work models, as well as deal with workplace safety. This proves further that remote work is not only here to stay, but to expand further, it’s bound to impact workplaces in the long term.

Large organizations worry more about losing control.

Major opportunities 

Our Global survey shows that a shift in technology and culture is of outmost importance in order to advance towards results and deliverables. This upheaval will impact the way we work, hire, train, assess, reward, and engage with employees & in turn redefine technology, products, services, and even the notion of work-life balance.

Shift in work culture towards deliverables is seen as a major opportunity for the future.
