As we are looking at new remote life-work concepts- maybe this is interesting to you as well.
As 2021 begins to come to an end, it’s clear that the shift towards remote working will remain. Companies continue to be hesitant around bringing employees back in full-time, and employees are similarly reticent to come back to the office. Nevertheless, working remotely offers many benefits, and many trends have emerged in its wake, signaling its popularity. Remote work trends in 2018 and remote work trends in 2020 have seen a dramatic increase globally. As lockdowns continue and offices remain closed, there is more remote working than in the years before. Remote work has also increased due to the flexibility and ease it offers, with the majority of employees stating that they do not want to return to the office.
In 2019, about 26.7 million US workers have started working remotely. That was about 23.7% of total workers in the United States. Because of the coronavirus outbreak that is making the largest toll on the country, as much as 44% of them now work from home. This is especially true in the technology sector with popular companies, such as Airbnb, Twitter, Apple, and Google leading the charge. Of course, in these extraordinary times, this is expected. But when normalcy was around, and when it returns, the increasing demand for work from home options seems to stem from two catalysts: (1) living costs in the metro with a high density of knowledgeable workers, and (2) technology has allowed for remote collaboration.
The past year was one of the monumental shifts. While every aspect of our personal lives underwent a significant change, the professional side also saw a massive shake-up. Remote work is one of those new trends. According to a recent Upwork survey, about 1 in 4 Americans (26.7%) will be working remotely in 2021. This is a significant change from 2018 when only 7% of civilian employees in the U.S. had an option to work from home. This is prepping to be the year of big remote work shifts, and work-from-home policies across companies and industries will change massively. Twitter, Shopify, and Dropbox have already announced that they will be moving to permanent work-from-home setups, and Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, announced that half of the company's employees could work remotely for 5 to 10 years.
Working From Home: Motivations and Concerns
So, why go to the office to do things that you can otherwise accomplish at home? Is going to the office just to let your boss know that you are working? Wouldn’t he figure that out with your output? These are the common rhetorical questions that employees pushing for the work from home setups bring up. Today, workers demand flexibility. They want a great work-life balance. And, it is commonly believed that when people have a good work-life balance, they become more productive at work. This is, at least, the selling point for remote work arrangements.
The world witnessed a historic shift in the 2020 job market due to the Covid-19 pandemic. While some companies used to offer the ability to work from home as a perk, it has now become the norm for most businesses. By 2025, an estimated 70% of the workforce will be working remotely at least five days a month. While 2020 may be considered the year of remote work, it is just the beginning as we see the trend continuing in 2021.
To be honest, we thought changes were huge, but this is turning into a massive market opportunity.
All the best from Bali,
