We believe the future of work will be more productive and provide an enhanced experience for our people and our clients. We expect most of our workforce will follow a hybrid working model, being more flexible about where work is done at client sites, Deloitte offices, and virtually. The hybrid work model is just one part of our larger flexible/agile working strategy, which Deloitte first began implementing formally and informally well before the pandemic with an eye toward talent retention and enabling the wellbeing of our professionals. For us, flexible working can be defined in multiple ways. It can include working remotely or in a hybrid fashion; adjusting schedules to accommodate team, home, and client situations; “The Deloitte approach to flexible working puts trust in our people to manage the actual day- to-day balance of where work is done while ensuring quality and meeting clients’ needs.”
