Remote working has often been debated as the “new norm” or “new reality” heading into 2021. While the concept is far from new, with 61% of employees reported to have some form of remote working arrangement before the pandemic, remote working is surely gaining more traction than it has in the pre-pandemic times.
Presently, tech titans like Google and Uber have issued edicts extending work-from-home orders until the summer of 2021. Facebook joined its fellow Silicon Valley members in letting its employees work remotely through July this year. Twitter’s CEO was one of the firsts to declare remote working as a permanent option. Gartner found that close to three in four CFOs plan to shift at least 5% of previously on-site employees to permanently remote positions.
