Dear Business Parter,

In the recruiting space we see every day that after Covid more people prefer an option for a hybrid position. Candidates would rather not accept a position than being in a position where they do not have flexibility.

In a recent article in BusinessTech the minister of Labour, Minister Thulas Nxesi said that they will have to investigate what does this mean and how to regulate the labour market. Labour experts agree that employees are increasingly demanding work from home flexibility and that they do not want to hear about the warning signs.

The role of the HR department is to provide training for managers on how to effectively manage a team both remotely and on-site.
