| | | | | | | | American workers really, really want pandemic-era work flexibility to stick aroundWhy it matters: Offering remote or hybrid work is turning into table stakes for attracting high-skilled talent.
A new McKinsey survey has found: - 58% of U.S. workers — 92 million people — say they can work remotely at least part time. 35%, meanwhile, can work remotely all the time.
- 87% of workers who can work remotely do so, at least one day a week.
Yes, but: Not everyone's getting — or taking advantage of — the opportunity to work remotely.
- Men (61%) are more likely to be offered remote work compared to women (52%). However, women given the chance to work remotely do so slightly more often (3.1 days per week, on average) than men (2.9 days).
- Older workers who can work remotely tend to do so more often than their younger colleagues — those 55-64 work an average of 3.1 days a week remotely, compared to 2.5 for those 18-24.
- A whopping 75% of people making $150,000 or more can work remotely, compared to just 47% of those making between $25,000-$49,999.
Where it stands: Many companies that have tried to force workers back to the office have had ... difficulties. Others, meanwhile, see flexible work as a competitive advantage. - Yelp is the latest big company to go fully remote. "We learned that ... our people could thrive and be just as, if not more, productive while remote," co-founder and CEO Jeremy Stoppelman wrote in a memo announcing the move.
| | | | | | | | Spotting employee burnout before it becomes obvious An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and nowhere is this truer than in the realm of burnout. Learning to recognize the early signs is just as crucial as knowing how to alleviate them. A great leader will do both. Here are three ways to spot potential burnout in your employees:
1. Look for anxious behavior. 2. Look for a lack of boundaries. 3. Look at sick-day usage. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | © 2022 Utah State University | | Mailing address:
