If 2021 marked the first contact of many organizations with hybrid work environments, in which face-to-face and teleworking models merge when possible, its consolidation is expected this year.
To extract the full potential of these new work models, organizations will continue to look for professionals with skills such as flexibility, resilience and adaptation to change.

In recent months, their priorities have changed, and flexibility, well-being and work-life balance are now at the top of their list. So much, so that teleworking has gone from being an incentive to a non-negotiable requirement in some sectors, such as technology.
A solid corporate culture also becomes a differentiating aspect for the candidates, who especially value that diversity and inclusion be given prominence.
And what can we expect from social benefits in 2022? An upward trend is the customization of flexible remuneration packages so that the employees themselves adapt the benefits offered by the organization to their specific health, leisure, sports or training needs.
We will also see the implementation of sabbatical periods as a desirable incentive to promote the well-being of employees.
