Workers admit going back to the office makes sense - they just don't want to do it

"A report from Owl Labs found a large majority (93%) of UK workers agreed they would take action (such as resign) if remote or hybrid options were removed entirely. Despite companies' best efforts to update policies to reflect more in-person working, employees simply don't want it. The number of candidates rejecting jobs without flexible hours has actually risen five percentage points from 39% to 44% in the past year."

"The most common routine seems to be three days per week in the office (41% of workers), with four days (27%) being the second-most popular. It's not just time in the office that's up for debate, though, because many workers want even greater flexibility. Two in three (67%) are interested in "microshifting" as opposed to a linear working time (for example 9-5) so that they can work per their personal energy, responsibility or productivity patterns."

Two in three (67%) are interested in microshifting to match personal energy, responsibility or productivity patterns. Seventy-three percent view a four-day work week as an important benefit, and many would give up an average of 8% of salary for it. Preference is stronger among millennials and Gen Z.
