Will this finally kill off WFH?
The IndependentJPMorgan is reputedly planning a major change to its return-to-office policy that could signal a significant shift in the whole employment market. The US banking giant – which employs 300,000 people globally, and 22,000 in the UK – is reportedly ready to call time on hybrid working. As part of Labour’s “new deal” for workers, flexible working is supposed to be the rule, not the exception, “where practicable”. Another policy aim is to have people working for longer while reducing the numbers of those deemed “economically inactive” – a term work and pensions secretary Liz Kendall is no fan of – through ill health and disability. It says the disability employment gap – the comparison of employment rates among disabled workers with those of their non-disabled peers – sits at 29 per cent.
