# Effectiveness of hybrid and remote work

Helps understand how clear, convenient, and equitable remote or hybrid work remains for everyone.

## When to use

Your company operates in a distributed or hybrid format. You notice that remote employees fall out of the information loop, or different rules emerge in the office versus at home. The survey will help set up an equitable work experience regardless of location.

## Key facts

- **Categories:** 3
- **Questions:** 12
- **Respondent:** An employee who works remotely, in a hybrid format, or in a distributed setup with colleagues
- **Topic:** Processes and work formats

## What it diagnoses

- **Productivity and coordination:** Shows whether the current hybrid or remote format helps work get done without unnecessary losses in focus, meetings, alignment, and removing blockers.
- **Access to context:** Shows whether an employee receives decisions, the reasons behind changes, and working agreements regardless of where they work.
- **Inclusion and equity of participation:** Shows whether remote and hybrid employees can participate on equal terms with office-based colleagues in discussions, decisions, feedback, and visibility of contribution.

## Example questions

- In the current work format, I have enough uninterrupted time to do my core work without constant switching.
  - **Scale:** Disagree — Agree
  - **Clarification:** What most often breaks your focus in the current work format?
- Meetings and syncs in our team help me move tasks forward without unnecessary overload.
  - **Scale:** Disagree — Agree
  - **Clarification:** Which meetings or syncs most often get in the way of work, and why?
- On our team, it is clear which channels to use for different work-related questions, what counts as urgent, and when to expect a response.
  - **Scale:** Disagree — Agree
  - **Clarification:** What most often remains unclear: the channel, urgency, response time, or something else?

## What the report contains

The report will show how effectively teams coordinate work remotely, whether everyone has equal access to work context and information, and if remote employees feel isolated when shared decisions are made.
