The companies in London restricting staff from working from home
Companies wishing to bring staff into the office more permanently are now considering the best ways to ensure staff are present.
A survey of 150 financial services companies, external was conducted in September last year by KPMG, which found that bosses were considering a range of methods to track attendance in the office.
Companies said they would consider using monitoring devices, such as cameras in the office or even under-desk sensors to ensure employees were at work.
For some companies though, incentives are being used to encourage employees back into the work place instead.
Just Eat for Business, who ask staff to be in the office three days a week, offer an allowance for free food every month.
Managing director Matt Ephgrave said the idea was “very affordable” for the firm.
“We’re all human, so it creates a moment where you can sit down, you can have a conversation with people you might not otherwise speak to,” he said.
