Schroders Keeps Covid-Era Flexible Working Despite London’s Return to Office

As firms across the City of London consider clamping down on working from home, Schroders Plc is sticking to its policy of letting workers decide how much time they spend in the office.

“Flexible working provides a strong link to enabling women to successfully fulfil their career ambitions,” Emma Carroll, head of HR business partners for the investment manager, said in emailed comments to Bloomberg News. “It was clear that a one size fits all approach would create obstacles to designing a truly inclusive workplace going forward.”
