Before the COVID-19 pandemic, over 80 percent of Canadian employees were working primarily at external workplaces. This decreased to 27 percent during the coronavirus pandemic. Indeed, only six percent of employees were working remotely for most of the time before the outbreak of the pandemic. The share of employees working both in home office and at their workplace, did not change significantly, declining from 12 percent to 14 percent.
