More companies dismantle WFH policies.

 

Two more major companies have ordered workers to head back to the office, another sign that the working-from-home trend has reached a tipping point. 

 

Dell and Flight Centre have joined a growing list of big brand names who want more face-time with their staff on a day-to-day basis.

 

Accounting and auditing firm KPMG recently found that 82 per cent of CEOs were keen for white-collar workers to return to the office five days a week in the next three years. 

 

Recruitment expert Graham Wynn told Yahoo Finance that it was always going to be a matter of when rather than if WFH would stick around for the majority of companies.

 

"I think, realistically, people have to accept it is going to happen, and we're certainly seeing a huge decrease in the number of companies offering jobs with work-from-home or hybrid opportunities," he said.

 

While businesses are pushing for a return to the office, workers aren't as keen, as a Yahoo Finance poll of more than 3,200 people revealed 69 per cent would leave their jobs if their WFH perks ended.

 

Woolies opens in CBD

A new Woolworths Metro store opening in Sydney’s Barangaroo precinct  is a “further sign” that the days of WFH are coming to an end. 

 

The move indicates that more workers are heading back to their offices in the CBD..

 

KPMG immigration leader Mark Wright said Woolworths’ decision to open a new store in the major financial hub could be “another nail in the coffin for WFH”.
