Employers who force staff to return to the office five days a week have been called the “dinosaurs of our age” by one of the world’s leading experts who coined the term “presenteeism”.

Sir Cary Cooper, a professor of organisational psychology and health at the University of Manchester’s Alliance Manchester Business School, said employers imposing strict requirements on staff to be in the office risked driving away talented workers, damaging the wellbeing of employees and undermining their financial performance.

    I’m interviewing next week for a job that wants hybrid for a fully-remote-capable position. I don’t need a job. I hate that company anyway.

    I’ll be asking them to justify their decree and asking how they want to pay the 20% surcharge - in the pay or separately - if I nail the interview.
