For example, working hours. For the last 6 months at home working, is your workplace still forcing your to keep core business hours? Meaning you MUST be online during your old office hours? If so that's at home working. People who work from home, have their own hours and working agreements.

Prithwiraj (Raj) Choudhury, associate professor at Harvard Business School, was studying the growing work-from-anywhere movement long before the Covid-19 pandemic forced many more of us into virtual work. He says that more and more organizations are adopting WFA as a business strategy, one that not only reduces real estate costs but also boosts employee engagement and productivity. He acknowledges that there are challenges to creating and maintaining all-remote workforces but outlines research-based best practices for overcoming them.
