According to a survey conducted in South Korea in August 2020, near 50 percent of the companies with five or more employees were supporting working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the source, a majority of respondents said that productivity increased when working from home.
Following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies have begun to implement various forms of hybrid and remote work models for their employees. The companies surveyed supported the continuation of home-based work even after the pandemic, which indicates that this could be implemented in the long term.
