Feeling a little lost? You must be Victorian. While the rest of the country transitions out of COVID restrictions, Victorians face the prospect of temporary halt to their lifting. ‘Continue to WFH where possible’, says the Victorian Premier Dan Andrews, ‘at least until the end of July’.
Spanner and works spring to mind for all those transitioning their teams back to the office as of the 1st of July. Upside, you get more time to get your plans into place. Downside, employees start to fray at the edges as the reality of returning to something that looks like normal anytime soon starts to fade.
