The Indian Prime Minister, Mr Narendra Modi in his speech addressing the country on August 25, mentioned that in order to boost the workforce with more representation from Women, different industries need to create provisions for working from home and flexibility in working hours.
If you look at the last 80 years of the world’s work culture, there was a recurring trend of significant change in the workplace every few decades. It started with the industrial revolution; the use of coal, which got replaced by gas, which in turn got replaced by electricity and then got revolutionised by the Internet and renewable energy.
All of these had a significant impact on the work culture of the respective workforce of the time. The industrial revolution changed traditional farming and agriculture to let people work in factories while coal and gas helped mechanise a lot of their equipment and then the electricity further enhanced the ease and productivity of the industries which then got replaced by automation and robotics. It all happened in the last 200 years.
This trend of workforce revolution is now at a stage where it’s getting ready for another revolution. The revolution of workplace flexibility.
Employees love the remote work culture and are keen to work in an organization that provides a remote work environment. Have this in mind, businesses and organizations have been moving towards hybrid and remote work.

Cultivating a healthy remote work culture is a continuous process that requires a lot of attention from both the company management and the employees. The idea is to build a community where everyone in the company feels empowered and trusted so that they can work their best.
Today, going to work no longer means going into a specific office like it used to; as many countries enter a post-pandemic world, we’re seeing flexible work environments— a mix of remote and on-site working, emerge across many organizations from small-scale to large companies. Remote work trends are increasing post-pandemic period.
The gig economy is growing at a pace faster than ever, all thanks to the extraordinary hype for remote and flexible work. Even before COVID-19 uprooted our traditional in-office work mode, the rise of the gig economy for freelancing was incredibly popular in countries like the U.S. The pandemic, however, transformed the way businesses pursue their operations too! Additionally, 20% of the current full-time workforce is planning to shift to freelancing.
Imagine working in a company that has its teammates distributed across 4 continents in the world. The team would definitely lack real connections among them; meeting apps do little to help that.
