The last two years have ushered in major changes for the state of work, from the increasing prominence of remote and hybrid models to the entire digitization of the workplace, employees are living in a “new normal.”
While the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that less than 10% of the population works from home due to COVID, anywhere from 25% to 35% of workers in the U.S. are working from home for reasons unrelated to the pandemic, according to Nick Bloom, a Stanford economics professor and co-founder of the Working From Home Research Project. Remote work no longer hinges on the existence of a public health crisis; instead, it’s becoming an accepted way to work.
