Schal330Zoom orders workers back to the office
That’s just bad PR. I can’t imagine the potential profits are worth the risk.
It’s been proven over and over remote work retains top talent and makes people better at their work. And the “productivity loss” is covered by the fact that people maybe get less done in eight hours, but work longer to make up for the productivity they lost to taking more breaks.
But American capitalism has to remind the workers that their misery is part of the point.
SolivineI’m not sure there is any productivity loss, I work way more efficiently at home
If you had kids, pets, etc, you might find yourself taking more breaks. But breaks are probably good for productivity too...
Plus there's a multitude of studies showing that people work far less than 8 hours a day, even if they are physically present at the job. I doubt productivity actually drops at all.
I worked in a government office that supported a very seasonal industry.
My coworker had an 8:30 start and would be done her work by 9.
Other times we wouldn't have time in the day to finish, but the slow season was hell.
