Almost half of all businesses across the UK now want staff back in the office on a full-time basis, in a push to pre-pandemic arrangements.
The shift away from working from home has ramped up this year in the financial and retail industries, with the likes of HSBC and Boots pushing some staff to return to office an additional day per week, or even on a full-time basis. Some have linked office attendance to bonus pay or insisting they work at least one Monday or Friday each week to avoid empty offices.
