As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, there seems to be no end in sight for hybrid and remote working – and for good reason. Hybrid workspaces tend to be the first option for organizations as it allows the best benefits of in-office and remote work at the same time.

Greater Productivity
With the right communication, management, and support, employees can excel in a hybrid workspace. Knowing when employees will be able to work face-to-face during the week lets them better prepare their schedule around teamwork and solo work (and bettering their time management in the process).
Better Work-Life Balance
In a hybrid office space, employees have the ability to work their schedules around child care, family responsibilities, doctors appointments, and more. For those that had never worked in a semi-remote capacity before, having this flexibility is revolutionary for them!
Hybrid workspaces often empower employees to take charge of their schedules and not feel restricted within their typical 40-hour workweek. Instead of feeling lost in the “rat race” with no choice in how they go about their week, employees tend to feel more motivated and inspired in a hybrid office.
Less Employee Burnout
Without the long commute and sitting in traffic to get to the office, employees find better use of their time through exercise, relaxation, and spending more time with their families.
Having a consistently draining 5-day workweek in office can lead to burnout, especially when employees don’t feel like they have any choice. Introducing the hybrid work model can give employees the flexibility to focus on their mental health and reignite the passion they have for their job.

Why is a Hybrid Option Better than Remote?
While we can’t speak for every organization, many companies are finding a better balance when allowing their employees to come into the office some days, and staying home on others. Rather than forcing all files and projects to be hosted in the cloud for employee access, businesses can have better control over some of their more sensitive projects by restricting them to in-office work. Employees get the benefit of being able to collaboratively work with their co-workers directly, while also benefiting from individual work to let their expertise shine.
Different Hybrid Work Schedules
Because each organization will have a different way of using hybrid work, every business might have a different solution. Most often, we see a set number of days in the office, and a set number of days at home in a hybrid work schedule - but that isn’t the only option out there.
When it comes to hybrid work, there are no set rules to go by. Here are some examples of hybrid options:
