Hybrid working

The digital world of work is accompanied by an increase in hybrid work. Hybrid working means an individual adaptation of the work experience to the employees of a company. Put simply: office work at the company headquarters is combined with working from home or traveling. However, the decoupling of work and location requires a certain level of technological equipment. Find out more about the advantages and disadvantages of hybrid working and how ComPeri can make the transition to hybrid working easier for your company with the right media technology equipment.

 

What is hybrid working?

Hybrid working offers a range of time- and location-independent working models. In addition to working in the office, co-working spaces and working from home or abroad are also possible. Working from home or while traveling is also referred to as mobile working.

In addition, hybrid working often goes hand in hand with flexible working hours. Fully flexible working hours work without core hours, while a combination of core and flexitime is referred to as partially flexible working hours.

Further models are distinguished:

1.Office First: In this working model, only less than four days a month are spent working from home. The employee concerned works mainly in the office.

Remote First: In this model, however, the employee spends the majority of their time working from home.

Fixed working hours: This term describes work at fixed working hours set by the employer. In English, this is also referred to as „Nine to Five“.

In German-speaking countries, the model of hybrid working is still largely new territory.

 

Hybrid work and the corona pandemic

The coronavirus pandemic has led to a change in the world of work. Hybrid working has become much more attractive out of necessity and new working models have had to be introduced at short notice. In many companies, the combination of working on site and working from home has become very popular and has been adopted as a long-term working model.

 

Hybrid working: Advantages

Hybrid working offers numerous advantages for both employees and employers. Above all, employees benefit from independence of location. As a rule, hybrid working models create more time for family and vacation. Higher employee satisfaction and motivation also represents economic benefits for the company. In addition, hybrid working means less workspace is required. Both sides can therefore benefit from this working model. However, it should be noted that the right hardware and ergonomic workplace design must also be taken into account when working from home.

 

Hybrid working: Disadvantages

Only a few companies in German-speaking countries have introduced hybrid working models. This is probably because hybrid working is associated with less control and more complex coordination. With flexible working hours, fast communication is only possible to a limited extent. There is also the danger of digital isolation for employees. Regular video conferences are particularly important for teamwork so that a good exchange can take place. ComPeri supports you with the right video conferencing technology.

 

Hybrid meetings

Hybrid meetings are one of the most important elements of hybrid work. This refers to conferences in which a part of the employees participate on site and others via video conference. The requirements for the technical infrastructure are particularly high here. Excellent conference room technology is crucial. Participants working from home must also be equipped with the appropriate hardware.
