Survey Says? Young Pro’s Expect the Right to Work Remotely

A recent study by Cisco found that more than 60% of college students and young professionals worldwide say that they have a right to work remotely on a flexible schedule.

Moreover, approximately 70% of those surveyed say coming into the office regularly is unnecessary.

Staggering numbers by any measure and certainly a wake-up call for employers, but not completely surprising in our opinion.

The ubiquity of mobile devices, social media, and technology innovations has rendered “daily office visits” unnecessary and arguably unproductive.

Carve off commute times and gas expenses, and you’ve got an even stronger case for giving the students what they want.

The right to work remotely, according to the students and young professionals surveyed, is not a sign of laziness or a lack of motivation, but rather a byproduct of an evolving society.
