Returning to the Office: The Current, Preferred and Future State of Remote Work

The “Great Global Work-From-Home Experiment” created by the COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we work and expect to work far into the future.

The Situation

The “Great Global Work-From-Home Experiment” created by the COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we work and expect to work far into the future.
As organizations ease back into office life, employees and employers are navigating a new chapter in this experiment. One that is now blending remote work flexibility and on-site work.
This new chapter is just beginning to write itself as 2022 progresses and more employees return to the office for at least part of their week.
Navigating the journey back to the office and crafting a long-term remote work strategy will require a clear understanding of how organizations are structuring remote work flexibility and what is working best for employees.
Approximately 56% of full-time employees in the U.S. — more than 70 million workers — say their job can be done working remotely from home. We call them “remote-capable employees.”
Current work location for remote-capable workers as of June 2022:

  • Five in 10 are working hybrid (part of their week at home and part on-site)
  • Three in 10 are exclusively working remotely
  • Two in 10 are entirely on-site
