Asking staff to return to the office?

Where do I stand with asking staff to come back into the office?

Where do I stand with asking employees back into the office?

Employers considering mandating more office attendance should carefully review relevant employment law and ensure their policies are legally sound.

They should also consider the impact of increased office attendance on employee well-being and work-life balance.

Evaluating the effectiveness of hybrid work arrangements and identifying strategies to maximise both in-office and remote work productivity is crucial.

Maintaining open communication with employees and being flexible in accommodating individual needs and circumstances is essential.

If you are considering mandating more office attendance and are unsure about the legal implications or how to best implement such a policy, contact Supportis.

What’s happening in the Civil Service with office attendance?

The UK Civil Service has reaffirmed its commitment to a hybrid working model, with most employees expected to spend at least 60% of their time in the office.

This follows reports of a decline in office attendance after the recent change in government. Most civil servants are expected to spend at least 60% of their time in the office or on official business, while senior managers are required to spend more than 60% of their time in the office.

The government emphasises the importance of in-office work for collaboration, innovation, and fostering a sense of community. Monthly office attendance data is being collected to monitor compliance and inform policy decisions.
