Four years after the pandemic ushered in a new era of remote work, 4 in 10 people no longer work from home at all despite only 15% of workers preferring this arrangement, according to a Commuter Census survey compiled by climate tech organization Mobiityways.

Seventeen percent of workers said they would like to work from home five days a week if they had a choice, up three percentage points from last year. Fewer respondents, however, indicated they were willing to work from home as an alternative to their current mode of commuting. 

Hybrid models that combine home and on-site work are the most preferred arrangement of the 10,325 U.K. commuters surveyed. Sixty-three percent of respondents said they would like to work from home between one and four times per week. Workers preferred working from home three times a week (20%), with twice a week coming a close second (19%) and one day per week coming in third with 11% selecting this option.
