One of the activities that were modified by the pandemic is the way of working, thus massifying the home office and recently hybrid work, whose benefits and disadvantages have been questioned, there are even some possible scenarios such as what its duration will be. Are we talking about a permanent or temporary way of working?
According to the UN, during 2020, 23 million people teleworked in Latin America and the Caribbean. That is, between 20 and 30% of salaried people in the region. This new modality has brought various consequences and positions for and against it.
Given the decrease in infections in most countries, organizations Chinese American Phone Number List and companies have implemented hybrid work, that is, working some days in person and others remotely, and in this context, the former head of Human Resources at Google has shared his opinion.
What will be the duration of hybrid work?
The pandemic seems to be leaving its peak points behind (without this meaning that it has come to an end), which has translated globally into a reduction in mobility restrictions and health measures. In other words, every day more people are leaving confinement and reducing the use of face masks.
At this time of transition, the way of working has also changed in certain sectors and there is a combination of in-person, remote and hybrid work, which, as its name indicates: combines teleworking and physical presence in the workplace.

Now, there are people in favor of each type of work and others against it. In particular, the debate focuses on making teleworking permanent and saying goodbye to hybrid work and in-person work.
However, Laszlo Bock – former human resources director at Google and co-founder and CEO of Humu – believes that the duration of hybrid work will not be long. This statement should be taken with caution, as it will depend on how each sector works and the type of job each employee has.
In fact, although remote work increased considerably, the reality is that some jobs continued to be done in person. Laszlo even shares:
Remember this is an elite problem. Most employees in the manufacturing, retail, and service sectors, including many of the janitors and security guards inside Google offices, have been going to the office this whole time.
Laszlo Bock , former chief human resources officer at Google and co-founder and CEO of Humu.
Under this precision, it is clear that hybrid work is only for a certain percentage of employees even in companies like Google. But the questions remain in the air: will this model come to an end? Will hybrid work cease to exist?
At least Google announced its return gradually by April 2022. The initial approach is with three days of in-person work and two remotely. In fact, via email it was stated:
We plan to use March to help people transition into their new routines, and we aim to be fully functional in our hybrid work approach (in line with product area and feature guidelines) by April 4.
John Casey , vice president of global benefits at Google.
Up to this point only hybrid work is proposed, however, this model creates a dilemma between employers and workers. Especially because for many workers, the remote route gave them certain benefits and comforts. On the other hand, employers have not yet consolidated their leadership. According to Laszlo's expectations:
Such an agreement is likely to last between three and five years; Afterwards, Google employees will return to work five days a week.

For Bock, hybrid work presents disadvantages for workers and bosses. In particular:
Workers: Obtaining promotions, better salaries and allowances would not be easy to obtain under this model.
Bosses: They still can't manage the remote workforce or leadership.
The bosses want people to come back. Executives at Google and other large companies are eager to fully return to office life.

According to a Bock insider , the transition would be slow and “eventually, we will get everyone back into the office. I just don't want to pick that fight now.'
