Workers and companies continue to clash over return-to-office (RTO) policies
GUAYNABO, Puerto Rico, Oct. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — ResumeBuilder.com, the premier resource for professional resume templates and career advice, has published a recent survey report assessing workers’ compliance with return-to-office mandates. ResumeBuilder.com surveyed 1,030 U.S.-based full-time employees working for companies that have implemented an RTO policy since 2020.
“As companies attempt to reinstate in-office requirements, there has been pushback from workers. Employers should know job seekers today still have options if they are looking to work remotely.”
According to survey findings, 1 in 5 workers aren’t following their company’s RTO policy. Employees on a hybrid schedule show higher rates of non-compliance. To get around the mandate, workers are leaving early or even enlisting the help of a co-worker to swipe or sign them in.
If companies start cracking down on compliance, 20% of workers say they are very likely to leave, and an additional 33% are somewhat likely to follow suit.
“For many employees, remote work has become a non-negotiable part of their professional lives,” says Resume Builder’s Chief Career Advisor Stacie Haller. “As companies attempt to reinstate in-office requirements, there has been pushback from workers. Employers should know job seekers today still have options if they are looking to work remotely.”
Survey results also spotlight the challenges workers have with their current RTO policies. These include commute time (45%), lack of flexibility in work hours (34%), commute cost (33%), and more. Workers say a raise, flexible start and end times, and transportation benefits would improve their satisfaction with their current RTO policy.
This survey was commissioned by ResumeBuilder.com and conducted online by the survey platform Pollfish. It was launched in September 2024, and 1,030 U.S.-based full-time workers completed the full survey.
