As Coronavirus cases are declining and with vaccination picking up, the world is expecting to return to normalcy again. When the pandemic started in March 2020, the entire corporate world was forced to adopt Work from Home (WFH) policy to tackle the outbreak.

But, it also can't be denied that they have been quite successful in doing so. But now, after almost one and a half years, corporations across the world are apparently gearing up to bring back their employees to office desks. If reports by financial media (CNBC) are anything to go by, companies are now embracing a hybrid model.

A few months back, the CEO of Google, Sundar Pichai, informed its employees about a 'hybrid workplace'. According to Pichai, the hybrid model is a concept, where around 60% of staff would come to the office for a few days in a week, another 20% would work in new office locations, and the remaining employees would work from home.

This hybrid model has become a buzzword in corporate sectors in India as well. This model will combine work from home and office. Big IT companies such as Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Wipro are trying this innovative hybrid model.

Marico, which is one of India’s leading FMCG companies, has also announced its plans to enforce the hybrid workplace model for all employees. Besides several Indian companies are also offering hybrid work schedule.
