According to him ‘Teleworking Report 2025‘Prepared by the labor consultant Robert Walters, 67% of teleworkors enjoy two or less work days from home. This reflects a clear tendency towards More flexible work modelsbut with greater presence in the office. That paradigm change supposes An added cost both for companies and For workers. The price of teleworking. A study The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) revealed that employees were willing to give up up to 25% of their salary in exchange for continuing to telework. Robert Walters’s study has completed the monthly average economic cost for workers associated with the return to the office. 47% of the interviewees ensure that the return to the office represents an additional economic disbursement of between 100 euros and more than 200 euros per month. On the other hand, 46% of employees who thought remote work negatively affected its internal visibility And the options to ascend to better positions will see how their opportunities are matched. Less remote, more hybrid. The study reveals that only 2 out of 10 workers who currently do so before 2020, showing the impact of pandemic on the extension of remote work. However, this modality has been contracting to leave space to hybrid models with every time More predominance of face -to -face work. The data collected by Robert Walters analysts suggest that 36% of the hybrid days only allow teleworking one day. 31% of companies allow two days to work in remote and 7% leave three days to work outside the office. The data of the companies that allow teleworking full -time is 13%, a figure close to the percentage of employees who telework in Spainaccording to INE data. Face -to -face or flexibility? The data collected by the study also reveal a change in employee preferences. 48% of respondents would prefer to have a more flexible schedule instead of another day of teleworking. In addition, 32%of the participants said that their company did not allow them to choose the teleworking days, being Monday (with 44%) and Friday (32%) the most common days to telework. “In recent months, we are attending the decline regarding flexibility in many companies that just a few years ago, they defended the conciliation and flexibility globally so that their workers could adopt and balance their personal and professional lives with the aim of turning companies into a pillar, support and support of the mental health of their employees,” said Jane Bamford, Managing Director for the southern Europe of Robert Walters. No teleworking, there is no job. 79% of respondents said they would change jobs if their company will eliminate teleworking options or time flexibility policies. 74% expect your company to maintain the same conditions at least this year, while 25% are convinced that Teleworking options will be reduced. Among the advantages that value teleworking most is the saving in the time of the displacements (78%), as well as their cost (44%). 74% points to Advantages for family reconciliation that allows them to work from home, although 16% say that at home they are much easier to concentrate. Manage from distance. Among the arguments that companies have given to reduce teleworking days, 26% of the companies participating in the study have felt the decline in work quality.

Employees value both teleworking that they would be willing to lower their salary: specifically up to 25%

100% remote work is becoming a model with less and less presencesince companies are adopting hybrid days at best, and the return to the face -to -face in many others. In that context, A study From the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) I have revealed that employees are willing to give up a percentage of their salary, or accept offers with a lower salary, if that allows them keep working from home. Up to 25% salary cut. He NBER study He has analyzed how much the employees of the technological sector value remote work, using concrete data and comparing it with their salary. This assessment allows to measure the real value that employees give to teleworking in a context in which face -to -face work and hybrid work models have become the most common option. The result has been surprising since the employees came to assume discounts of up to 25% on average in exchange for not having to go to the office. As I know resigned from teleworking daysthe salary amount to which they were willing to resign was also reduced, going down to the strip from 15 to 20% of the total salary. A much higher cuts than expected. The National Bureau of Economic Research is not the first study that addresses this valuation of teleworking, but the estimates of the previous studies resulted in a much smaller percentages fork that placed the cut that were willing to assume between 5% and 10% of your total salary. As an example, we find The study carried out in January 2024 by the University of Barcelona and the “La Caixa” Foundation, which set this percentage in 8% salary cut. However, something that must be taken into account is that teleworking options have been maintained In high qualification profiles and higher wages, so this cut already part of a salary range with a high percentile. The law of supply and demand. According to Report data ‘IV Radiography of Teleworking in Spain 2024’ prepared by Infojobs, 7.6% of employed people work more than half of their weekly day from home. However, The study ‘State of Remote Work’ of 2023 prepared by Buffer, revealed that 98% of employees preferred to work from home for the constant interruptions and by the displacements to the office. On the other hand, as the Infojobs study pointed out, the offers that included some teleworking modality has been reduced by 2024, representing 14% of the total employee vacancies published. This percentage has only declined since in 2021 it reached its 21% peak, which was reduced to 19% in 2022 and 18% of the total in 2023. According to the NBER study, reduction in the remote employment offer has caused remote work to be perceived as a much more valuable modality than was estimated in previous studies, especially between technological industries. A justification for charging less? The study opens an important debate on compensatory differentials between employees. Employees with teleworking days do not show substantial salary differences With respect to their peers who go to the office. That would leave the door open to companies could reduce salary for remote roles under the principle of compensatory differentials. That is, pay less in exchange for non -salary benefits such as hourly flexibility, which their classmates do not enjoy with a face -to -face day. Something that is not happening. According to the authors of the study, this salary equalization suggests that technology companies are still adjusted to this New labor reality and compete to retain talent by offering similar wages, regardless of whether the work is remote or face -to -face. Telefajo: an advantage for SMEs. As the ADECCO IT & DIGITAL SALARIAL GUIDESMEs cannot compete with the salary ranges offered by large technological ones. That is why teleworking offers you an opportunity To attract a talent that finds no remote employment offers in large technological ones, which they have given by amortized Your adventure with teleworking. Nber’s study demonstrates a trend in which qualified employees would be willing to collect a lower salary that would perceive it in a large multinational, in exchange for being able to work from home. This implies a factor that balances the opportunities to capture talent for SMEs.
