The Future of Work

Written by Riyah Davies on January 28, 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way many of us work. More businesses are operating remotely, on different schedules, and with changes in staffing for the first time. But could these changes become long-term shifts in how we work?

In this IFT Webinar, Olivia Sinfield, Associate Director at Osborne Clarke, and Mark Bayley, Independent IFT Member specialising in commercial property, will discuss the ‘Future of Work’ in the context of employment and office premises.

There will be opportunity for Q&A after the presentation, which will be chaired by IFT Independent Member Steve Tancock. Please feel free to send questions in advance to rdavies@the-ift.com
