9/10 Workers Want to Keep Work From Home Option

Cisco Systems surveyed 10,000 people across 12 markets in Europe, the Middle East and Russia that says nearly 9 out of 10 workers want the option to work from home even after the pandemic work restrictions ease.

The survey adds that two-thirds of workers have developed a greater appreciation for the lifestyle that comes with remote work.

The survey presents that 5% of those surveyed worked from home before the pandemic, and presently 87% of workers prefer the work-from-home environment, with their biggest priority being effective communication and collaboration above all else.

Gordon Thomson, Vice President of Cisco, said “It’s not just about connecting people anymore, it’s about the experience you deliver to people as they are connected. We are investing far more in the analytical piece that goes behind the connectivity.”
