According to Jim, this new cashless system will be “a dagger aimed at our financial throats.” [OST Main Logo mobile](   [LOGO OST]( Below is an important message from one of our highly valued sponsors. Please read it carefully as they have some special information to share with you. [divider] As companies scramble to develop return-to-office policies, a lack of plausible explanation from bosses can exacerbate rising tensions. When digital-agency worker Sarah began a new job in the north of England, her employer said they’d need her at their headquarters on a full-time basis because she lived locally. Her colleagues, however, were allowed to work remotely because they weren’t a commuting distance away. “My boss didn’t have a clear flexible-working policy: they just made it up as they went along,” she says. “They said because it was easier for me to go in, I should be there every day.” For Sarah, such workplace dynamics didn’t create resentment towards her colleagues – but towards her employer instead. “I was ultimately punished based on where I lived. Flexible working shouldn’t be about your proximity to the office,” she says. ‘Management themselves are ghosts’ By selecting which workers have to return to the office, and which can have flexible working, employers are inadvertently creating off-kilter workplace dynamics. It’s leading some employees to challenge such decision making at a corporate level.  In Mark’s case, he’s particularly angry his company has failed to explain why employees who worked productively in remote set-ups should be forced to return to the office. “We’ve been told flat out we need to be back in, yet management themselves are ghosts,” he says. “If internet access is all that’s required to complete your tasks, then work shouldn't be bound to any single location.” I was ultimately punished based on where I lived. Flexible working shouldn’t be about your proximity to the office – Sarah Butterworth says establishing fair working practises ultimately comes down to consulting directly with employees. “If a worker has a reluctance in returning to the office, then the employer has to demonstrate the value to the individual, their work and the wider team. And if people have been hired on specific remote contracts, that needs to be communicated on why they have a different set-up.”  Figuring out why employers are allowing one employee is to work remotely and asking another to come into the office can help reduce tensions in teams. “It’s about looking at the needs of a role, the team and the worker,” says Butterworth. “As long as people understand these decisions, it’s easier to find a solution.” The danger is that without careful consideration and transparent processes in place, some workers will feel hard done by if they’re asked to return to the office while others aren’t. As well as an instant hit on morale, it can create issues between colleagues, driving deep wedges in the workplace over the longer term. With little in the way of explanation as to why he has to be in the office, while others can work from anywhere, Mark is now looking for a new job. “[Managers] use phrases like ‘team building’ and ‘collaboration’ to justify the return-to-office push,” he says. “But I don’t think it’s fair for non-site-essential employees to report at the workplace. Companies incapable of flexibility will haemorrhage the quality employees.” Dear Reader, Jim Rickards made some spectacular financial predictions in the past… But the crazy thing is Jim’s predictions keep coming true! - In 2016, Jim predicted Brexit would pass. He was right. - That same year, Jim predicted that Donald Trump would win the U.S. Presidential election. Jim was right again! - And in 2019, Jim didn’t just correctly predict a pandemic — he also predicted exactly how the government would respond! Now Jim is issuing an urgent forecast about the replacement of our money system with a “cashless society.” According to Jim, this new cashless system will be “a dagger aimed at our financial throats.” And it’s coming faster than you might believe. In fact, the first steps to a “cashless America” could begin as soon as Dec. 13, 2022. You need to be ready.
