- Hot desks will cater to employees working between home and office
DUBAI: Oman Insurance has opened a new headquarters building in Dubai that features hot desks as employees work between home and the office.
The insurer said employees from its Al-Rigga and Maktoum branches had moved to a six-story building next to Al Ghurair Mall in Deira.
“We are indeed aiming to empower our employees with modern communication tools and hot-desking functionalities to support our objective of having employees working from home while creating an environment with purpose-built work areas that are open, bright and futuristic,” said CEO Jean-Louis Laurent Josi.
The pandemic has upended traditional office working practices as many employers move to a hybrid model where staff move between home and office working as required. The trend has led to architects re-imagining new office space as employers adjust to the new normal.
