SAWB - WFH update

from SafetyAtWorkBlog · host Kevin Jones

This episode examines why some Australian business leaders continue to resist working from home despite evidence showing no productivity loss and clear mental‑health benefits. With Victoria preparing to legislate a limited WFH right, the debate has become more ideological than evidence‑based, shaped by political positioning, managerial mistrust, and even leadership psychology. Drawing on recent research from the AFR, The Conversation and ANU, this episode explores the gap between what the data shows and what some bosses prefer to believe, arguing that hybrid work is already the practical middle ground, whether business groups want to admit it or not.
