More and more people prefer to shorten their working time at the office

The situation of the COVID-19 epidemic in the US is gradually being controlled, allowing office workers in general and New York City in particular to return to work. But, instead of keeping habits like commuting to work away from home, using public transport and meeting face-to-face, more and more people prefer to shorten their working time at the office.

The governor of New York state admitted that now there are very few employees who come to the office to work all 5 days a week. The most common schedule is that they go to the office 3, 5 or 4 days a week, the rest of the time they work remotely.

The pandemic has made remote working the norm for office workers. Not only that, but more and more employees in New York City are asking for flexible work weekdays and employers are gradually adapting to this.

Currently, New York workers take an average of 42 minutes to commute from home to work, they would save nearly 2 hours a day if they could work from home.
