Актуальные размышления из офисной жизни. Is the Office Dying? Insights from the Skills and Employment Survey 2024 The pandemic has significantly shifted our understanding of work locations, leading to claims that the traditional office is becoming obsolete. The Skills and Employment Survey 2024 reveals key trends in home and hybrid working: 🔹Homeworking: 27% of homeworkers use non-dedicated spaces; 45% have dedicated home offices, with men more likely to have them than women. 🔹Fixed Workplaces Decline: Workers in fixed locations fell to 38% from 64% in 2001, while homeworking rose from 3% to 13% and hybrid working from 5% to 21%. 🔹Pandemic Impact: The shift to home and hybrid work accelerated during the pandemic, particularly for higher-skilled workers; lower-skilled workers remain in traditional roles. 🔹Challenges: Homeworking blurs work-life boundaries, leading to longer hours, but productivity has not significantly declined. 🔹Access and Policy: 45% have dedicated home offices, but many work in multi-purpose spaces. Despite the right to request flexible working, 38% of the workforce is still in fixed locations, mainly in lower-skilled jobs. More to the topic #Business#For_you_to_know

Good morning everyone! Новое слово вам в копилку:-) Quiet cracking: when an employee "breaks down" silently at work. After the phenomena of quiet quitting and quiet firing, a new issue arises — quiet cracking. This is not about resigning or sabotage, but an internal crisis of an employee who: – loses motivation; – stops believing in their abilities; – sees no meaning in their work. Studies showed that: 🔹 1 in 5 workers often feels unhappy at work. 🔹 54% show signs of disengagement — they are mentally elsewhere. Why? 🧩Lack of training leads to insecurity. 🧩Insufficient feedback causes alienation. 🧩Absence of prospects makes them want to escape. #For_you_to_know

Есть среди нас финансисты и люди бизнеса? Осваиваемся с терминологией по-английски:-) Уровни риска в бизнес-верификации. CDD vs EDD explained: Levels of risk in business verification In the realm of compliance and anti-money laundering (AML), understanding Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is crucial for assessing risk and verifying business relationships. Organizations must know when to apply CDD and escalate to EDD to ensure regulatory compliance and protect against financial crime. What is customer due diligence (CDD)? Customer Due Diligence is the process of verifying the identity of a business or customer before establishing a relationship. This involves collecting essential information such as the company name, registration data, beneficial ownership structure, and the purpose of the relationship. CDD is typically part of the onboarding process for new clients and is effective for low- to medium-risk clients. However, it may not provide sufficient oversight for high-risk entities. What is enhanced due diligence (EDD)? Enhanced Due Diligence is a more thorough investigative process required for high-risk clients or transactions. EDD goes beyond standard identity verification, involving detailed source of wealth identification, transaction behavior analysis, and screening for politically exposed persons (PEPs) and adverse media. Financial institutions must conduct EDD when dealing with clients from high-risk areas or in industries like crypto or gambling. Core differences between CDD and EDD The primary distinction between CDD and EDD lies in the depth of investigation required based on the customer’s risk profile. CDD involves standard data collection and initial risk assessment, while EDD necessitates comprehensive examinations of financial actions and ownership patterns. Business verification compliance strategy A business's compliance strategy should effectively balance CDD and EDD applications. For example, a startup in a low-risk area may only need CDD, while companies with offshore ownership or in high-risk sectors must implement EDD. This risk-based approach helps protect against fraud and money laundering without overburdening low-risk clients. The CDD Process The standard CDD process includes three steps: verifying customer information, assessing the business relationship, and screening against watchlists. Periodic reviews help maintain updated risk profiles, and if suspicious activities arise, an EDD review is triggered. The EDD Process EDD involves a comprehensive examination of a client’s background, including understanding fund origins, conducting site inspections, and implementing heightened transaction monitoring. Senior management approval and specialized compliance tools are often required. EDD is critical in high-risk environments to uncover threats that CDD may miss. #Business#ProfEnglish
