Tasks

The ‘Working From Home Around the World’ project develops systematic, international evidence about the incidence of working from home during and after the pandemic. It investigates whether working from home will stick, why, and provides insights into its main economic and societal implications.

Methods

The project will establish the Global Working from Home (Global WFH) online survey. Two waves of the Global WFH online survey have been conducted covering 32,909 respondents in 25 countries. Wave 1 was conducted in July 2021 (N=11,543, 14 countries), wave 2 in February 2022 (N=21,366, 22 countries).
