With hybrid working becoming the new ‘norm’, the majority of office workers have said that as a result they feel more trusted and motivated to do their job.
The Kadence research, which surveyed 2,000 UK and US office workers, found that after a year of flexible working, 62% said that they now feel more trusted to do their job, while 51% are now more motivated to do a better-quality job.
As many as 48% said that they were now willing to ‘go the extra mile’ due to their new working arrangements.
Dan Bladen, CEO and founder of Kadence, commented, “It’s clear that a culture of trust is needed for businesses and individuals to thrive as we shift to hybrid ways of working. Employers must move beyond physical location and shape the future of work with employee experience in mind, ensuring it’s easy to coordinate remote and in-person time and that staff have resources tailored to their needs.

This also means encouraging a balance, where employees work productively but also know when to stop, to prevent burnout.
“The pandemic proved that it’s possible for workers to be productive anywhere. Now it’s up to businesses to design work around their people, maintaining the flexibility they’ve become accustomed to, and enabling them to get the best work done, wherever they choose.”
