This may
not be particularly surprising, but it does highlight a significant challenge that employers whose staff have to be present in the workplace at all times (31% of the total workforce) must address. Some of those who work on-premise all the time choose to do so, but more than half (53%) have no choice but to come into the workplace. For those
workers who have no choice, consider whether there are ways to accommodate the work-life balance or mitigate issues such as commuting time and costs. Staff would probably appreciate employers at least starting a dialogue about these issues. Those who work on-premises are also less likely to feel empowered to take advantage of flexible working arrangements
(62%). That compares with 73% of hybrid workers and 71% of remote-only workers. Employers may want to think about why this is and how they can bring about positive change on this issue.
