The 2021 efforts of the Task Team on Future Work, Future Workplace and Future Skills under the HLG-MOS Modernisation Group on Capabilities and Communication have concentrated on considering the longer term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the ways National Statistical Institutes, their staff and managers organise and deliver their outputs.
To help National Statistical Institutes (NSIs) address the challenges arising from this huge shift, the Task Team on Future Work, Future Workplace and Future Skills has produced a series of three Toolkits, shaped around issues affecting Employers (NSIs), Employees (all staff) and Managers (employees with staff management responsibilities). These Toolkits examine the issues associated with future Hybrid or Blended Working models for NSIs and attempt to sketch the challenges under the following dimensions:
• Examining considerations arising when moving from a single office based work place to a Blended or Hybrid Working Model
• Exploring the challenges, needs and opportunities for the Employer, the Employee and the Manager
• Identifying questions that require solutions
• Pinpointing common areas of concern or needing attention
• Suggesting high level actions to help
• Serving as internal conversation starters...
These Toolkits are a start point but are not complete support resources. A further phase of work could establish a shared repository of knowledge, comprising, for example, relevant research papers into the Future of Work, emerging Policy Frameworks, Health & Safety Guidelines, relevant common Training Materials etc.
More resources will be available soon on this page.
