<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">The House of Lords Committee on Home-based Working recently issued a call for written evidence in its inquiry into remote and hybrid working in the UK. The Committee was appointed on 30 January 2025 to consider the challenges and opportunities of remote and hybrid working, both for employers and workers; the impacts on productivity; and any wider consequences to society and the economy. The Committee will also examine the extent to which these effects vary depending on the characteristics of individual employers and workers and whether new policies or legislative changes are needed. Written submissions were invited on a variety of topics, including the impact of remote and hybrid working on physical and mental health; why some employers have issued back-to-office mandates while others continue to support hybrid and remote working; how the needs of employers and workers can be balanced; and the appropriate role of the government in addressing and researching the challenges and opportunities of remote and hybrid working. The call for evidence closed on 25 April 2025, and the Committee is expected to report on its findings by the end of November 2025.</p>
