Hybrid working the 'new normal' for 28% of employees, says ONS
The Guardian
|November 12, 2024
Workers with degree-level education are 10 times more likely to have a hybrid working arrangement than those with no qualifications, according to official figures that suggest a societal divide has formed since the first Covid lockdowns.
Almost five years since the start of the pandemic, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said hybrid working - part travelling to work and part at home - appeared to be here to stay for some workers more than others.
In analysis highlighting how the shift could increase social divisions, the ONS said the likelihood of hybrid working was split across age groups, job type and education.
As well as the large disparity between workers with degree-level education and those with no qualification, the ONS also found people aged over 30, parents and managers and professionals were the most likely to log on from home.
