> employees desire ~45% of days to be WFH.
What I found surprising about this survey is that most people wanted to split their week between the home and the office (according to Figure 3).
Only 24% wanted to work never or rarely at home; 27% wanted to work always at home; and 49% wanted to work a split week.
That's very different from what most people appear to comment.
- ghaff 6y agoDoesn't really surprise me. For people with a local team, scheduling 1 or 2 "collaboration days" seems like a pretty good compromise--as well as a change of scenery. The downside of course is that you still probably have to be driving distance or a train trip from the office--although your radius can potentially be bigger compared to coming in every day.
- whatever1 6y agoCouple of reasons behind that: 1) You dont want to miss out the opportunities that you get from f2f contacts 2) You don't want endless office interruptions when you have work to do Seems that a WHF arrangement with dedicated meeting days offers the best from both worlds.
- apple4ever 6y ago#1 is exactly why I want to be back in the office. #2 also goes the other way - you don't want endless home interruptions when you have work to do (kids, deliveries, significant others)
