The September jobs report marks the last time the Bureau of Labor Statistics is presenting remote working data in their current version.
As the economy added another 263,000 jobs and the unemployment rate ticked down in September, the jobs report also showed that the share of workers telecommuting because of the pandemic continued edging down, falling to 5.2% from 6.5% the previous month.
There’s going to be changes in the questions because the queries in their current wording are “less relevant than they were earlier in the pandemic,” the agency said Friday. The questions come in a portion of the data where Census Bureau staffers call households to ask about their employment situation and the Bureau of Labor Statistics uses the data in its jobs reports, a spokeswoman said. The Bureau of Labor Statistics has not decided when it will publish the data, she noted.
It may be trickier these days to sift out who was away from the office because of the virus and who was away due to the shift surrounding office work, Zhao said. “At this point in the pandemic, the reason for many who are working from home is because that’s new norm for their work.” On one side, 45% of U.S.-based CEOs told KPMG, the international accounting, auditing and advisory firm, that hybrid work would be their office arrangement looking ahead three years. Meanwhile, two-thirds of CEOs in the global survey said in-office would be the arrangement.
