Topic: Hybrid Working Policy
Answer: You are the only person who can really make that decision and it really depends on what your business does and how it functions. You need to give careful consideration to the implications of this for your business. Some flexibility could be the right move but before you change roles to part office/ part home work make sure that you have clearly specified you policies and procedures explicitly (i.e. written down). With remote working it is even more important to have some control measures in place to ensure that you get the right output from those people working from home. In these situations you can really only measure output rather than input/ time spent on the work but, in many ways, output is the thing that really matters and this is what needs measuring. By the way, we have a draft Hybrid Working Policy in Resources that you might find useful if you are moving this way. Hope this helps.
