Thanks to the growing popularity of remote work, more and more employees have the option to stay home rather than return to the office.
But what if being away from the office means these employees are missing out on special projects, building relationships, or getting promoted?
According to Slack’s Director of Equality, Hady Méndez, proximity bias can be problematic for many, if left unaddressed. When remote workers are unintentionally excluded from conversations, decisions, insights, and relationships, it's up to companies, managers, and employees to set up guardrails and guidelines to help create more balance and equity.
Tune in to hear Hady discuss what proximity bias is, how to advocate for yourself as a hybrid or remote employee, and learn some ways companies and managers can help create a more equitable workplace for all employees.
