 Moving to a hybrid workplace

Moving to a hybrid workplace

Join us for the legal services event aimed at preparing law firms for the relaxing of lockdown restrictions in the UK. The time has come to embrace a hybrid working model and set your partners and fee earners up for success.

Date & Time: 25/05/2021, 10am (duration 2 hrs incl. Q&A)

The UK Government has set a date of no earlier than 21st June for removing all legal limits on social contact. This could tentatively be considered as the “back to normal” date.

At that point, they will want to stimulate the economy and, to help that, are likely to promote returning to the office.

UK law firms need to prepare for hybrid working as the pandemic has initiated a sea change in our views of what work is. Work is now considered more what we do, rather than where we go.
