A happier workforce is a more motivated and focused workforce. With more time for everyone, money saved, pressure is eased, and the quality of life at a company improves. Peace of mind By saving both time and money, hybrid working also creates a greater peace of mind. On the worker’s side, it means costs saved on travel, parking and maintaining a closet of work clothes for each day of the week. For a business, this means less spent on rent, maintenance, and even office amenities such as stationery, cleaning supplies, and coffee. A business could hold half the workforce they used to on a given day or even just have a small office for high-priority interactions. Less office space is needed if workers come in on alternating days. According to research by Global Workplace Analytics, hybrid working can save a firm up to $17,000 New Zealand per employee, per year.

Cost efficiencies Companies can vastly reduce costs by reducing the resources required to house a full workforce day to day. Having part of the workforce at home also means savings on space, infrastructure, utilities and rent. Time is saved on an individual level, as well as for the company because workers can be set tasks and brought into meetings instantly. At the same time, meetings can be organised and held in a matter of minutes, rather than waiting for everyone to gather together after setting space aside to host the meeting. Not only does this eliminate the end-of-day commute, which doesn’t help anybody’s mental health, but considers the benefits to health, safety and the environment when there are fewer vehicles on the road. A worker can be online and connected five minutes after they’ve woken up if they like. With a choice of working in the office, or working from home, everyone can save time by not having to travel.
But the industrial revolution, with all its excesses and exploitations, is long gone. It kicked off with the industrial revolution where everything was about units of production (even people). Before the internet, this was the case for everyone, except for perhaps a few telemarketers. This optimisation means better time management… Saving time If we go back to the days of our grandparents, they had to travel to work to and from work daily. A company can give workers the freedom to choose when they’ll come into the office, or schedule a rotation, so there’s always a presence in the office while everyone is still getting the job done. In essence, it allows staff to work from home or the office from day to day, or even within a workday. Ideal hybrid working is tailor-made to fit your personal situation as well as your business needs. It blends the traditional way of working, as we know it in the office, with modern technology. What is hybrid working? It’s a combination of old and new. The world has changed, and while this presents a number of challenges, the solutions we engineer will generate new opportunities, not least in how we revolutionise the office, but in a way that not only saves time and money, it needs to deliver massive benefits for our health, wellbeing and productivity also.
