An end to the traditional 8-hour day? You have to ask yourself that after reading a recently published global study. People are working less and less in the office and more and more from somewhere else. According to IWG, the parent company of leading workspace providers such as Regus and Spaces, the emergence of this \"mobile workforce\" has been triggered by technological change, globalization and changing employee expectations. IWG published the aforementioned study on the subject, based on insights from more than 18,000 business professionals in 96 countries. According to this study, 70 % of employees work at least one day per week away from the office. More than one in two (53 %) work remotely at least half the week, and more than one in ten (11 %) work outside their company's main office five times a week.<\/p>\n
