Almost four out of five chief executives expect remote working to become more widespread in their businesses as a result of COVID-19, a global survey from accountancy firm PwC showed on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
New York, London and some other big cities currently have only a fraction of their normal workforce in offices as employers and governments have told staff to work from home where possible.<\/p>\n
While some authorities are now encouraging a return to work, PwC said 78 percent of the chief executives it surveyed expected that at least some of the shift towards remote collaboration would prove enduring.<\/p>\n
“A blend of office and home working is most likely to be the future norm,” PwC UK’s chairman Kevin Ellis said.<\/p>\n
Two-thirds of chief executives expected a global economic downturn as a result of COVID-19, and more than three-quarters expected a further shift towards automation.<\/p>\n
PwC’s survey was based on responses from a panel of 3,500 of its clients globally conducted between June 15 and July 3. PwC’s network of firms operates across 157 countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
