A significant number of companies, approximately 87%, enforce return-to-office (RTO) mandates, ranging from full-time to hybrid arrangements. The rationale behind these mandates centers on enhancing employee engagement and connection. PwC studied its UK employees and found that those who work in the office three days a week exhibit higher engagement compared to those who come in five days a week. This balance is seen as crucial for training new hires and fostering workplace relationships, indicating a nuanced approach to RTO policies that considers productivity and well-being.
Most companies (about 87%) mandate returns to the office, with varying policies; PwC found that three in-office days per week boosts engagement but full-time in-office can decrease it.
PwC's findings suggest that engagement peaks when employees are in the office three days a week, which facilitates training and connection without overwhelming them.
