In recent years, the landscape of work has drastically changed, especially with the rise of remote and hybrid work models. Companies that adapt to these changes are reaping the benefits, including enhanced productivity and work-life balance for their employees. One Wall Street firm, Lazard, is a perfect example of this shift, as highlighted in a recent Business Insider article. Lazard’s CEO, Peter Orszag, discussed how the firm’s flexible work-from-home (WFH) policy has improved employee agency and performance.
This policy, which allows employees to work remotely two days a week while spending three days in the office, stands out among financial firms that are more insistent on returning to the office full-time. According to Orszag, this hybrid model not only gives workers more control over their schedules but also allows them to balance personal responsibilities while maintaining their productivity at work. As one Lazard managing director, Tracy Farr, pointed out, this flexibility enabled him to excel at his job without missing out on important family moments.
At OnTask Work Logger (OWL), we believe in empowering workers to prove their progress—whether they’re working remotely, in the office, or anywhere in between. Our platform is designed to accommodate the hybrid work model, offering tools that allow for seamless time tracking, task management, and proof of work, no matter where you are working from.
The OWL Advantage in a Hybrid World
At OWL, our mission is to make hybrid work easier for both companies and employees by focusing on proof of work, which means showing clear progress on tasks and projects regardless of where or when the work is done. Here are some of the ways OWL can help:
- Track Your Progress from Anywhere
Whether you’re working remotely or in the office, OWL provides robust time-tracking and project management tools that let you stay on top of your workload and provide real-time updates to your team. - Maintain a Healthy Work-Life Balance
Just like Lazard’s employees who benefit from the firm’s hybrid policies, OWL users can better manage their time by setting clear boundaries and tracking how long tasks take, allowing for more flexibility without sacrificing accountability. - Proof of Work for Transparent Reporting
OWL’s “Proof of Work” feature lets you easily demonstrate your productivity, making it ideal for hybrid workers who want to showcase their contributions no matter where they are working from. - Adapt to the Future of Work
The shift towards hybrid work is becoming more and more prevalent across industries. By using OWL, organizations can embrace this trend while maintaining high productivity and performance standards.
