A lively card sort activity here that gets students debating whether remote working is a realistic and motivating reward for different job roles.

In this activity, students sort job role cards into three categories: suitable for remote working, not suitable, or potentially suitable through hybrid working. They justify their decisions, then analyse how remote working can motivate employees, the challenges for businesses, the role of technology, employee preferences and the future of work.

This activity directly maps to the non-financial rewards content, especially remote, hybrid and flexible working, and encourages students to consider the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches in different job contexts. It also links well to employee wellbeing, where flexible working is listed as a method of improving wellbeing.
