No company desires to miss out on out on employing the very best talent.

Diversity (DEI), flexibility, transparency and employment the rise of relatable organisations are the keywords in focus for employer brands in 2024.

We’ve seen a great deal of modification throughout 2023.

Our Q3 Flexible Working Index (a report which tracks developing patterns across the versatile tasks market) revealed a sharp shift away from remote work among companies – completely remote roles accounted for simply 4% of job posts between July and September, on average.

Meanwhile, jobseekers’ demand for remote work remains strong, however our data reveals that the more versatility companies offer staff around working areas, the more popular they are amongst candidates.

The classic Mon-Fri is taking a rear seat. More and more companies are introducing an alternative method, which includes variations of the 4-day week, the 4.5-day week, and the 9-day fortnight.
