Building an Effective Hybrid Workplace Culture
Breakout Session B
Over the last two years, efforts to create more flexible workplaces have accelerated. Organizations that were already experimenting with hybrid work arrangements, as well as those that hadn‘t reached this point, were forced to adapt quickly to the challenges of the pandemic, including the need to support staff working from home. With hope that the pandemic is finally winding down, management and staff are now trying to figure out what the workplace should look like going forward. They have begun the challenging work of sorting through what has and hasn‘t been effective with a remote workforce with the goal of building a fully functioning and sustainable hybrid workplace. This panel will include a discussion of successful hybrid workplace programs in Ontario. Additionally, experts will provide insights into the benefits of providing remote work flexibility and will raise awareness around Ontario‘s Right to Disconnect law, which is set to come into effect on June 2nd, 2022.
