SUMMARY:Breakout session six: Remote Working – a review of today’s evolve
 d workplace 
DESCRIPTION:Working from home (WFH) is here to stay\, for some it will be
  full-time\, but hybrid models are favoured by many. Our panel will look
  at how this new model is working\, highlighting the main challenges and
  opportunities arising from this redefined employment relationship. For 
 many businesses\, WFH increases productivity rather than decreasing it\,
  but managing the relationship is sometimes problematic\, giving rise to
  employment law issues like performance management\, being monitored too
  much or too little as well as issues around ‘visibility’ and proximity 
 bias. Are underrepresented workers better off or losing out as a result 
 of WFH? Statistically\, remote workers get promoted less often than thei
 r in-office peers and are being paid less\, despite being considerably m
 ore productive on average. The panel will look at the potential discrimi
 nation or other employment claims which are emerging as WFH becomes more
  established as a norm.\n
