Sir Charlie has become the latest prominent figure to declare that the traditional, office-based working week is over as he predicted firms will adopt a permanent flexible model after the pandemic. Other corporate giants - including British Gas owner Centrica, NatWest Group and outsourcer Capita - have also confirmed they will move their workforces to hybrid working. 'Going for a four-day working week would bring huge benefits to workers' mental health, which directly feeds into firm performance.' He added: 'The Covid pandemic has effectively killed off the 9-5, 5 day working week.'
