Before COVID-19, working from home was a massive advantage for anyone seeking work-life balance. In fact, some people would ask their managers if they could work outside the office even if it were for a day (to start with).
The benefits of allowing employees to work outside the office are enormous. But for those who still express their doubts, there are plenty of statistics to suggest that working from home can be highly beneficial.
That’s why the team at Myergonomicchair compiled a list of remote working statistics into this visual guide.
Remote working statistics
- 30% of remote workers save up to $5,240 per year in terms of expenses
- 26% of remote employees earn more than $100,000 annually whereas only 8% of onsite workers earn more than that
- Those in full-time positions say they’re happy in their job 22% more than those who never work remotely
- 91% of workers report better work-life balance as their main driver behind working remotely
- Schedule flexibility is nearly 2 times as important to remote workers as it is to on-site workers
- 82% of remote employee managers are concerned about reduced employee productivity
