Description
Though the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020 made remote work the norm for many, it had already become more common. A 2015 Gallup poll found that 37% of U.S. workers had telecommuted, while a 2019 Global Workplace Analytics survey found that 40% of surveyed companies offered flexible workplace options. Of course, those numbers jumped significantly in 2020. A global survey by Gartner found that 88% of business organizations mandated or encouraged employees to work from home as COVID-19 spread. It’s unclear how many employees will continue to work remotely as the world adjusts to the new normal, but in general, remote work is a global workplace trend that appears to be here to stay.
