Following on from the presentation at Emerging Insights into VR about this research we are pleased to be able to share more details.
Summary: From an exploratory survey examining the implications of recovering from Covid-19 upon resuming work, it appears that the unpredictability as well severity of post-viral symptoms requires a flexible and potentially long-term return to work planning process co-developed by workers with their managers. Development of more ‘long-covid aware’ organisational cultures and management systems could be essential for supporting this process. Within this summary document we unpack what this means in more detail.
