In line with recent trends in the legal industry, Magic Circle firm Clifford Chance has unveiled measures to monitor and enforce office attendance among its associates. Following closely on the heels of similar initiatives by prominent firms like Slaughter & May, Clifford Chance’s policy mandates a 50% in-office presence, translating to five days every two weeks.

Surveillance Implementation

The firm has disclosed plans to employ surveillance technology to ensure adherence to this policy. Beginning February 1, 2024, Clifford Chance will review individual attendance data across its London and Newcastle offices. This move underscores the firm’s commitment to upholding its hybrid working model while maintaining a significant physical presence in the office.
