Opinion: Organizations tend to penalize women more for working from home. But when workplaces have policies that support healthy remote and hybrid work models, not only do employees benefit, so do organizations — and so does equality in the workplace.
As pandemic restrictions have eased, many of us are still working from home. Whether they have a hybrid arrangement or work remotely full-time, a lot of people prefer skipping their commute and enjoying a more relaxed working environment.of those who began working remotely during the pandemic would prefer to continue working at least half of their hours at home.
But organizations often stigmatize their employees for wanting to work from home. Research shows that even before the pandemic, managers considered employees who used flexible work arrangements to be less dedicated to their work because they weren’t putting in face time — no matter what their output was.
At the same time, working at home might make employees feel lonelier and more isolated. Many of us form close social connections in our workplaces, and those might disappear when we work from home all the time. Zoom meetings aren’t a good substitute for this socialization., it’s more important than ever that organizations prioritize equality and well-being for all employees.
