How are employees in the Philippines changing their perspectives on 'work'?

Almost two years into the global COVID-19 pandemic, organisations and professionals have come to accept and adapt to different processes and work routines.
From remote and hybrid work arrangements to video-based interviewing and discussions, to a greater awareness and push for mental health and overall well-being, employees are increasingly conscious of how workplaces can be forged differently in a post-pandemic climate.
As countries across South East Asia slowly emerge from various forms of lockdowns and restrictions, how are employees readjusting to a return to the office and the ‘new normal’? Will work be back to ‘business as usual’? Or would companies have to face a vastly changed landscape of employee expectations?
For starters, Jayson Mendoza, Manager - Human Resources at Robert Walters Philippines, points out, "Professionals are likely to join companies when they’re confident their ideas will be heard, and they’ll be equipped to get results in this new normal.”
