Deep dive: Seven rules for ‘hybrid’ remote and office working
Tuesday 02 February 2021
There’s a chance that, come the spring of 2021, everything will just return to normal. Covid vaccines will be rolled out. City centres will fill up. Trains, skies and motorways will clog up. Pret will again run out of those nice duck rolls by midday.

Deloitte research into employees across seven European countries suggests that more than 100 million people in Europe have made the shift to remote working during the Covid-19 crisis, with nearly 45 million doing so for the first time.
