Roughly nine percent of employees in Norway had formally agreed on working from home occasionally with their workplace in 2020. Among these, 4.9 percent of the employees regularly were in home office, while another four percent did so once in a while. That was a significant increase compared to 2019 and was arguably caused by the effects of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
The first case of COVID-19 in Norway was confirmed on February 26, 2020. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Fact and Figures page.
