A big question out there for a lot of people has been as we’re getting vaccinations out and there’s some light at the end of the pandemic tunnel is - how will I return to work? And what will that look like? Major employers in the area usually set the tone as the benefits and structures they offer influence others. One of those, of course, is Ford. The Dearborn-based automaker announced Wednesday their return to work plans for its office workers. Remember the concept of hybrid cars? Well, now, it’s hybrid work models. More than half of the 86,000 global Ford employees who have not returned in person yet will this summer. But the office will look different than they left, and where they work will change. It’ll also impact the kinds of buildings and structures Ford uses going forward. To unpack what that looks like, Jennifer Kolstad, the global design director of Ford Motor Company's built environments, joins me to talk about it.
