Remote worker numbers are hard to pin down
March 31, 2023
The Labor Department last week said that 72.5 percent of businesses reported that their employees rarely or never worked remotely last year, nearing the pre-pandemic level of 76.7 percent. Other research, however, shows that more Americans are working from home on a full- or part-time basis. “I see this survey as an outlier and not the most reliable measure,” said Adam Ozimek, chief economist of the Economic Innovation Group. “We need to think hard as we try to develop better measures of working from home.”
