Looking Ahead at 2024 Work Trends |
|
Many employers quickly shifted to a remote work environment in the face of COVID-19. As the world emerges from this pandemic, employees continue to search for remote work and hybrid work situations as part of their work/life balance. A recent article from Forbes lays out the eight biggest trends for work in 2024.
Employers who understand these trends, specifically the value of decentralization of the “work office” and investment in diversity and inclusion within their workforce, are set to come out ahead. Benefits, such as a robust international health insurance plan, can help when it comes to recruiting and retaining talent beyond a company's physical walls. |
