The COVID-19 pandemic has altered people's working patterns and perceptions of workplaces worldwide. Professionals agree that the future of work will be hybrid, with teleworking and traditional office employment combined. IT administrators may face additional issues as a result of the new model. So the question is, how can we design a hybrid workplace that is both safe and efficient?

More and more, the hybrid workplace seems to be the new normal. Of course, hybrid work isn't a new concept. Several businesses had already adopted it to some extent prior to the COVID-19 pandemic (including us at Ripple!). However, the pandemic accelerated this transition and forced businesses, both big and small, to adopt this new workplace environment.
