The Welsh workforce may be joining the four-day-workweek club if it follows recommendations set out by the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales. The value people place on work and leisure has been reshaped during the pandemic, and many want a better work-life balance post-COVID-19.

While COVID-19 has strengthened the case for employers to offer remote working – turning what was long seen as a perk into a new norm – there’s a risk that it could forever blur the lines between professional and personal worlds. So, how can brands and companies help to restore work-life balance?

Design consultancy firm Arup is supporting Britons’ desire for work-life balance by giving employees the flexibility to work whenever they want across the seven-day week. With WFH shaping post-pandemic life, employers can consider the benefits of flexible working on productivity and wellbeing.

COVID-19 made Britons reevaluate what they considered to be important in life, and for many, establishing a healthy work-life balance has become a priority. Canvas8 spoke to eight people from across the UK to learn how they’re planning to adapt their careers in the wake of the pandemic.
