Widespread teleworking is likely to well outlast the Covid-19 pandemic.
At least, that’s the opinion of 77% of human resources leaders from major American companies surveyed by the Conference Board, a member-driven think tank aimed at looking ahead on business issues.
The survey gathered responses from 152 HR leaders in late April in the thick of coronavirus business closures and stay-at-home orders.
Even a year after the pandemic substantially subsides there will be an increase in the number of employees working remotely for at least three days a week, more than two-thirds of respondents said.
