Generali is reportedly looking at a hybrid working model for its employees in the post-Covid-19 pandemic era.
This hybrid working approach involves employees spending time at office and working from home, reported Reuters.

At an online event, Generali CEO Philippe Donnet said: “The model will be hybrid. Our view is (that) a good balance would be 60% in the office and 40% at home. We also believe that it has to be organised,”
The insurer only allowed the staff of some of its units to work from home for few days a week prior to the Covid-19 outbreak.
Donnet added that the hybrid working model “cannot be based only on the (personal) choice of people.”
The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic had forced firms across the world to change their work model drastically.
