Historically, employees either drove or commuted into work five days a week. As the digital age has advanced, remote work has become a standard practice for many companies in various types of industries.
According to a report by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics published in 2010, nearly 24 percent of American workers reported doing some or all of their work from home. Due to the continued advances in technology, a 2018 study found that more than 60 percent of the world’s work force works at least one day a week away from the office location and that almost 50 percent of all employees work half the week remotely. This means that almost 3.7 million employees work from home at least part time.
