The staff will be given an option to work from home for six days every fortnight.

KPMG has announced that it will follow a strategy of ‘four-day fortnight’ and will also invest in introducing collaborative spaces and remote-working technology. The Company had consulted its employees in March 2021, before introducing such changes, and many of them expressed the desire to work from home.

This decision will be implemented on over 16,000 employees in the UK. The staff will be given an option to work from home for six days every fortnight. PWC also announced some long-term changes to its working week by introducing flexible schemes for its employees.

Jon Holt, Chief Executive, KPMG said, "Our new way of working will empower them and enable them to design their working week. The pandemic has proven it's not about where you work, but how you work. We have listened to our people and designed this strategy around our staff and how they can best support our clients."

In an email to the workforce, spokeswoman Zoe Sheppard said

“As part of the firm’s new hybrid way of working, from June onwards, the expectation will be that KPMG’s people spend up to four days in the office spread over a fortnight, with the rest spent at home or client sites.”
