52% of Poles would like to use remote work more often in the future

More than half (52%) of Poles would like to be able to use remote work more often in the future, according to the latest Cushman & Wakefield report entitled "Workplace Ecosystems of the Future".

"There is a consensus among industry leaders that working only in a remote model will inevitably lead to a deterioration of the work culture and a decline in innovation and creativity. The scale of the phenomenon of working in a hybrid system, where employees spend part of the week in the office and spend the other part working from home or other location, may more than double (from 22% before the pandemic to 58% after the pandemic), while 100% remote work will still be rare (around 10% both before and after the pandemic). will depend on individual organizations, departments, teams and people, but it can be assumed that the balance can be achieved by working in a remote system two days a week "- reads the release.
