Webinar on a changing work environment: from physical offices to remote work
The CER network's webinar on March 24 focused on a changing work environment. For many, work is becoming increasingly flexible when it comes to the office landscape itself. How does it affect the individual and the organization?
Erika Wall, Professor of Health Sciences at Mid Sweden University, began the webinar with a short lecture on how flexible working can work when activity-based working methods are combined with the opportunity to work from home. Based on new research in the public sector, she talked about how employees try to understand and manage this type of workplace.

She showed, among other things, that many people accept changes quite well, as long as it is clear why they are being made, how they link to smarter use of resources and that the transition itself is carried out properly. At the same time, she highlighted that it can be really challenging to get good conditions for jobs that require confidentiality or a lot of focus, especially when working in open and mobile environments.
The lecture was followed by a panel discussion with Professor Erika Wall, HR specialist Malin Rinstad at the Swedish Agency for Digital Government, DIGG, and Maria Nyberg, Recruitment Manager and Employer Branding Manager at SCA. The moderator was Lovisa Lahi, Team Leader Brand and Digital Channels at LF Västernorrland. Sidekick was: Nina Staaf, Sustainability Strategist, Mitthem.
