Hybrid work has been hailed as the future of work in the post-pandemic era. Many have seen this model as a path to greater flexibility, autonomy, and work-life balance as well as saving time and costs and helping the environment. However, hybrid work also poses important challenges linked to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI). These concerns include a negative impact on the career advancement of employees who work remotely on a regular basis, loss of visibility, decreased access to information, and disengagement from the culture of the organisation.
Given the wide diversity of the workforce, in evaluating the impacts of new forms of work (both positive and negative), these issues must be explored and effectively addressed. This event will provide a forum for companies in Europe to reflect on the EDI impacts of the new hybrid working model emerging from the Covid-19 crisis.
With Keynote speaker Sally Wright, Senior Research Fellow at the Warwick Institute for Employment Research (University of Warwick, UK), and invited presentations from:
- Caring Workspaces, based in Istanbul, this project aims to make workspaces more inclusive, diverse, caring and safe by prioritizing gender+ perspective.
- RESISTIRÉ, a research and innovation project funded by the European Commission aiming to find sustainable solutions to the social, economic, political, and environmental impacts of Covid-19 policy responses on gender equality, and to strengthen societal resilience to outbreaks.
