Only a small share of employees work fully remotely. During the pandemic, many departments allowed more staffers to telecommute — though about half of federal employees continued to work fully in person. Looking at all federal employees, nearly 80% of the hours they work are in person, the OMB report found. “I don’t think you can just eliminate a quarter or half of federal employees on an ad hoc basis without paralyzing the government,” he said. It could also prompt talented federal employees to seek jobs in the private sector.

CNN —Taking care of an elderly parent or seriously ill spouse or family member can be physically and emotionally draining — and expensive for the caregiver in more ways than one. While employers have been expanding their benefits to help employees start families and more easily care for their children, they are now thinking more holistically about what it means to support employees’ family lives, including benefits for things like elder care, Izbicki said. Fuller constructed a return-on-investment model to assess the value of providing caregiving benefits.

Google plans to crack down on employees who haven't been coming into its offices consistently, CNBC has found. Cicconi even asked already-approved remote workers to reconsider. "For those who are remote and who live near a Google office, we hope you'll consider switching to a hybrid work schedule. A separate internal document showed that already-approved remote workers may be subject to re-evaluation if the company determines "material changes in business need, role, team, structure or location."

The shift to remote work fueled 60% of the pandemic-era home price rally, a new Fed study found. For every percentage point that remote work increased, home values rose 0.9 points, the researchers found. Remote work increased to 16 percentage points from November 2019 to November 2021, according to the study.
