Within the scope of the research, companies that completed their plans to return to the office after COVID-19 were asked which application they determined for their new working order. 83% of the companies stated that they have made changes in their working patterns, but the rate of companies that have completely adopted working from home was limited to 3%. 46 percent of the companies set the condition of working from the same province, which shows that companies still value easy accessibility of their employees.
The three issues that companies think will affect their performance the most in the new period are: Attracting and retaining talent (71%), employees' ability to establish a healthy work/life balance (50%), changing demographics and changing employee expectations (48%). Although companies think that they should support their employees by taking into account the changing working environment, the rate of those who took action by preparing a full-fledged wellbeing program was limited to 5%. While the rate of companies that say they offer narrow and limited programs is 36%, the rate of companies that plan to offer programs in the short and medium term is 23%.
The companies listed their priorities regarding their wellbeing plans as follows: Increasing employee satisfaction and loyalty (87%), increasing employee productivity (74%), improving work-life balance (70%), reducing employee stress (57%), attracting and retaining talent (51%), supporting employee's physical health (49%), increasing company job performance (36%), reducing employee turnover (25%), promoting job security (14%), social responsibility (12%) , increasing the resilience of the employee (8%), workforce planning (5%), reducing the health expenses and absenteeism rate (3%) took the last place. In this question, companies could choose more than one option. Although 80% of the companies do not have flexible fringe benefits, 22% of the companies reported that they plan to switch to flexible fringe benefits in the coming years.
