During the Corona lockdown, many Germans were working from home.
According to an estimate by the Munich-based Ifo Institute, significantly more people are now going to the office again.

is currently still popular in many companies.
But more and more people are apparently working in the office again.
In July, according to a new estimate by the Munich Ifo Institute, only a quarter of the employees (25.5 percent) worked at least temporarily at home, reports the German Press Agency (dpa), a continuation of the downward trend of recent months.
In June it was still 28.4 percent.
Ifo estimate: only a quarter still work in the home office
From the point of view of the Munich economists,
not only the
end of the home office obligation for companies
is a reason: “People are looking for personal contact in the office more often,” said Ifo scientist Jean-Victor Alipour according to dpa.
According to the Ifo assessment, the development was particularly clearly visible in television and radio: The proportion of do-it-yourselfers fell from 60.9 percent in June to 36.9 percent in July.
According to the report, employees in service professions continue to work more than average in their own four walls.

In the future, mixed forms of mobile and stationary work are conceivable
In this context, a survey by the travel payment service provider AirPlus is also exciting: According to the survey, companies are expecting the proportion of home offices to remain in the future, writes dpa.
This is particularly suitable for employees in IT, finance and management as well as in marketing, communication and general administration.
Because remote work also showed weaknesses due to a lack of human interaction, most companies expected mixed forms between mobile and stationary work in the future.
