WORKPLACE

What would be the future of workplaces ? While the advanced nations are able to switch some of the work to homes, it may not be the case with developing nations. A lot of industries cannot operate with employees working remotely or away from their homes. The new models which are going to emerge out of this pandemic may involve a dynamic hybrid workplace approach, where small groups of people may be working at work sites.

In India, the approach towards the traditional jobs, workplace routines are changing rapidly. The small and medium enterprises are still yet to recover from the pandemic blues. In order for the country to get back on track in a growth trajectory, the demand has to increase multi-fold in the market. The gap between demand and supply has to be closed in several sectors through innovations and incentives from the government.

If you are about to graduate from a degree and enter the job market, the chances are that you may be on-boarded virtually, trained and placed in projects remotely going forward. The new workplace you may have imagined might end up being at the comfort of your home. The collaborations, team meetings, project updates, etc. everything will happen virtually in most of the service oriented, IT based industries for a foreseeable future. You have to be prepared for the new normal in the coming days.
