This book examines the growth of hybrid and remote working following the pandemic and the diverse issues that result from this.
While hybrid work is undoubtedly the ‘new norm’, for office-based jobs, the organisation of hybrid work arrangements continues to evolve, with many organisations attempting to adjust the balance to require workers to spend more time in the office. This book examines traditional workplace issues (productivity, work-life relations, isolation and wellbeing, meetings, and management) alongside workspace issues (virtual, office, mobile, and co- working), concluding with wider implications and potential future directions. Building on the latest research on hybrid and remote working, and including case studies from different countries, this book considers each issue from the perspective of organisations, managers, and the workers who undertake such forms of work. The author provides a balanced analysis of the topics examined, considering the diverse positive aspects of hybrid and remote working, as well as the challenges and difficulties that they can involve. He offers practical advice for hybrid workers, and those who manage them, to make these forms of work effective.
This book will have wide-ranging appeal, including for professionals such as managers and human resources workers, students and academics of business, and organisational and business psychology, and anyone interested in this fascinating and fast-evolving area.
Donald Hislop is Professor in the Sociology of Work and Technology in the Business School at the University of Aberdeen, UK. He has published extensively on the topics of home-based and mobile working, and has recently been an occasional contributor on BBC Radio Scotland on the topic of hybrid working.
