Recent figures from the Office for National Statistics reveal that hybrid working—a mix of office and remote work—has emerged as the new standard for 28% of British workers. This trend, gaining momentum since March 2022, highlights disparities based on education and income. Workers with degrees are ten times more likely to hybrid work compared to those with no qualifications. Additionally, those in higher income brackets and specific job categories like management are more likely to embrace this flexible work model, underscoring the ongoing work culture shift accelerated by the pandemic.
Hybrid working has become the new normal for more than a quarter of working adults in Great Britain, officially indicating a significant shift in work culture.
The survey by ONS revealed that the majority of hybrid workers are aged between 30 and 49, showing a clear generational pattern in adapting to new workstyles.
The disparity in access to hybrid working is notable; workers with degrees or higher incomes have significantly more opportunities to work in a hybrid mode.
Overall, approximately 28% of workers are now engaged in hybrid work, a notable change compared to previous years prior to the Covid-19 pandemic.
