The transformation experienced during the current pandemic crisis will transform the workplace, and accelerate the future of work initiatives for the rest of 2020. The article indicates the need for organizations to improve their training and investment in remote working and the focus on the future well-being of employees.

Today, the future of work is the future of worker's well-being.

As the COVID-19 crisis continues to cause disruptions in the way of doing business, managers and specifically human resource managers can improve productivity by focusing on digitizing talent supply-chain and investing in remote working.
