 Brazilian lender Banco Bradesco SA plans to have employees work from home an average of one week per month permanently in order to save on rent and sell some real estate, Chief Executive Octavio de Lazari Junior said in an interview. Bradescos remote work plans for its nearly 97,000 workers are the latest example of how the coronavirus pandemic has major companies rethinking real estate and redefining the workplace. Remote work full time is not productive, as people must exchange ideas and understand the banks culture, Lazari said, explaining the balance between working from home and the office.
