Summary/Abstract: The paper recommends creating a “hybrid” model in which remote workers can come to the office attend meetings or come to the workplace at regular intervals. It is recommended to work in the office on specific days to achieve optimal balance. Finally, the paper argues that the future lies in hybrid and flexible work environments, which in most cases are neither fully remote nor fully “on-site”. However, priority is given to both manual and service work. Nevertheless, when it comes to non-manual jobs and the creative industries, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The tailor-made approach for each employee can lead to the hoped-for increase in work performance through the formation of teams that would have flexible work routines so that each employee can maximize their results and utilize the best-suited environment, which will ultimately benefit the company and its profit.
