Return-to-office provisions remain in flux

Quick Summary:

Insurance boss Andrew Tay believes that working in the office is more conducive and less distracting, while also increasing interactions with others and reducing stress.

Since 2022, Tay, who is managing director at Goshen Financial, has been asking his two employees to return to the office five days a week, following the end of the Covid-19 lockdowns.

Still, Singapore firms are not calling staff back to the office as much as their counterparts in the United States, Britain, Hong Kong and Tokyo, said Sher-li Torrey, founder of social enterprise Mums@Work.
