Taking into account the effects of the pandemic, this is almost double the increase compared to the level two years ago, as according to the figures of the organization, at the end of 2019, this rate was only 17%. In addition, as the offices reopened in 2021, 51% of the staff working from there are already working in a hybrid system, meaning they can work at least one working day a week from home

Comparing countries and global regions, the United States will be at the forefront in this area, with 53% of the U.S. workforce working in the home office. In Europe, the proportion of teleworkers in the United Kingdom is 52%, while in China and India it is only 28% and 30% respectively.
