VodafoneZiggo wants to see staff in the office more often and proposes a departure scheme

VodafoneZiggo plans to require office employees to work three days on-site, up from two, as part of a new hybrid work policy. A temporary departure scheme will be available for those who cannot comply, but the proposal is still pending approval from the works council. The company emphasizes the benefits of in-person collaboration and learning. A recent court ruling favored Booking.com, allowing it to mandate employees to work at least 40% of their time in the office, highlighting the need for employers to consider individual circumstances. Many Dutch workers continue to work from home post-pandemic, with 3.6 million still doing so regularly.
