Top 3 Benefits of a Hybrid Workplace Model

Hybrid Work Model

How can your business benefit from a hybrid work model?

In 2020, teams and companies across the globe quickly switched to remote work environments due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, as the pandemic came to an end, many companies requested their employees to return to the office.

The result?

97% of employees stated that they don’t want to return to the office full-time. In fact, only 3% of employees and entrepreneurs said they want to work full time at a physical office.

Consequently, many businesses had to find a middle ground and introduced a hybrid remote working model.

Hybrid work models are flexible work environments that combine remote and in-office work. It gives employees the flexibility and autonomy to choose where they work.

When done right, a hybrid work environment can benefit your company in many ways.

Here are three benefits of hybrid workplace models:

Increased Productivity & Employee Satisfaction

Hybrid work models give employees more flexibility and autonomy – they can choose to work in the workspace that boosts their individual productivity and happiness. This way, employees who prefer working in a busy office environment can do just that, while employees who thrive in quieter workspaces can work from home.

Giving employees autonomy can also boost employee satisfaction. If you get your employees the freedom to choose how, when, and where they work, your employee satisfaction scores will skyrocket.

You should also give autonomy to employees who have chosen to return to in-office work. Let them know you trust that they’ll get the work done – without micromanaging them.

More Opportunities for Continuous Learning

Showing your employees you care about their development and career by giving them continual learning and growth opportunities.

This is crucial since 94% of employees would stay longer at a company that invested in their learning and development.

Managers and leaders also need to understand that learning doesn’t only happen in formal training courses. Your employees can learn essential life and business skills through workshops, webinars, lunch and learns,” and more. 

You should also encourage managers to hop on one-one-calls with employees to learn about their goals and interests. This way, you can provide support and encouragement. 

Better Outcomes for Mental Health

A hybrid working model can help employees improve their work-life balance since every employee can fit their work and life together in a way that suits them. For example, if an employee has a stressful morning and can’t make it to the office on a certain day, they can choose to work from home and still get all their tasks done without the unnecessary stress of commuting.

For remote employees, ensure they establish clear boundaries between their home and work lives. This helps reduce stress and prevents employee burnout. Fully remote employees also lack human interaction. As a result, it’s crucial to organize some form of face-to-face team building activity once in a while.
