policies need to maintain discipline & not intrude into personal time & space of employees & HR has to ensure compliance. I get feedback that WFH is taken as an excuse by managers to schedule meetings/updates much beyond office hours. As if employee was responsible for Covid

Firms that are able to work objectively with HR & employees on favourable arrangement are more likely to retain & attract quality resources. Retention of employees is critical to smooth functioning of firm.
