Remote work matures in Portugal; hybrid model prevails

The hybrid work model remains dominant in Portugal, but the market is fragmenting, according to Adecco Portugal. Some sectors are embracing flexibility, while others are increasing in-office presence. Adecco's analysis reveals that the shift isn't uniform, with tech and marketing favoring flexibility, and industries like banking and healthcare returning to the office. The company emphasizes the need for firms to balance productivity, well-being, and organizational culture. More than 60% of global professionals prefer hybrid work, but one-third feel less connected to their company remotely. Adecco Portugal suggests that companies focusing on consistent experiences and strong culture will lead the future of work.
