    FOUR years after the pandemic, the Singaporean workforce is still debating the merits and downfalls of hybrid work patterns.

    In part, this is due to the remote rewind we are witnessing, with many organisations mandating everyone back in the office. Many Singaporeans are still resistant to this request and need a compelling reason to return to the office.

    This remote rewind is exacerbated by more challenging economic times, as companies are focused on increasing productivity.
