This statistic shows the percentage of workforce that will remain permanently remote post-COVID who were not remote before COVID. A quarter of respondents said they will move at least 10% of their office employees to permanent remote positions. This is not surprising as CFOs are under pressure to tightly manage costs, and they see an opportunity to achieve the cost benefits of a remote workforce.
