So, company expected employees to WFH during pandemic to keep the company running and they complied. Company saw all that empty real estate and cut costs, company then demands office time, and finds out they do not have enough office space anymore… and this is now the employees problem.
It’s time that 50pct WFH is government mandated to cut down on unnessecary travel and pollution.Travel time should just be considered work time by the government, watch the WFH return immediately and office time flex around rush hours all of a sudden.Eh, that might cause location based discrimination. Maybe make it so that companies have to pay for gas or public transport of their employees instead
Maybe a little. But they need employees.
Make them pay the time the commute takes you as if it was working time. You’re only commuting to work for them after all. That will sort the issue once and for all.
Given that rents are higher near population centers, i think “the market” would solve it.
The most shameful part is that the union unequivocally supports RTO, they just want it to be done a bit more slowly.
Fuck neurodivergent people, and people who took the job from another city, like those in rhe article who need to commute 6 hours a day, right?
forcing some staff to take meetings in the toilets.
Unless a meeting was about that particular toilet and required being held there in order to see an issue to be discussed first hand, I’d absolutely refuse to attend. Are those people out of their mind?
Maybe it’s a pretty and elaborate toilet room with comfy chairs and desks? Glass windows and a view of nature or the city?
In case of paywall.
RTO is causing trouble everywhere. Good
They increased the target from only 50 to 60 percent in-office. And don’t even have space for their people, lol.
We’re supposed to be inside 60 percent of the time, but there are only seats for 50 percent of the staff, so you have to puzzle. In some places there is a lot of space left, in others not. Yesterday, for example, two of my colleagues sat in the toilet and took meetings because there was no room. Others go out and get in the car,” she says.
What does “space for 50 percent of the staff” even mean? With the 60 % target being over the year, you’ll still have phases and instances where a lot more than 50 % of people come into the office. Maybe not 90 %, but I would expect at least space for 70-80 %.
