Work Landscape in 2022: Hybrid Workforce and Labor Rights

The jury may still be out on the long-term effects of continued remote work but one thing is clear — a hybrid workplace is the future.

Hybrid workforce collaboration

Twitter was among the first big tech companies to offer its staff to work from home as long as they want;

Apple offers the option to work remotely twice a week as well as a 2-week work-from-anywhere benefit;

Microsoft allows employees to work remotely part-time (less than 50%) and full-time with a manager’s approval;

Shopify announced a move to become a digital-by-default company, allowing its employees to permanently work from home;

Slack too implemented a permanent remote work policy, encouraging even top execs to work from home at least two days per week.

The employment law is catching up

In Portugal , the parliament approved the new labor laws that prohibit employers to contact employees outside of business hours;

In France , employers with at least 50 workers must negotiate agreements to allow workers to disconnect from work technology after hours.

In Italy , the right to disconnect was established in law back in 2017;

In Spain , employees are guaranteed the right to digitally disconnect during off-work hours to ensure respect for their rest time, holidays and privacy;

In the UK , the government considers making flexible working the default.
