The Decline of Remote Productivity

Organizations are experiencing layoffs largely due to declining productivity among remote workers. Initially, remote work during COVID was seen as a positive shift, allowing employees flexibility. However, many individuals became distracted by home responsibilities, reducing their overall efficiency, leading to longer work hours with little to show for it. As a result, companies struggling with productivity began re-evaluating their remote work policies, with some seeing substantial boosts in output when employees returned to the office.
