Survey on Office Usage -- featured advertisement published on Nikkei, August 5

About 40% of companies reported there were no change in productivity after implementing remote work, and about 20% each reported an increase or decrease in productivity. For future office configurations, “fixed seats entirely” will drop from 60% as current to less than 30%, while over 70% plan to use flexible forms such as “desk sharing”. The importance of on-site offices to be “unchanged” and “increase” had a sum of more than 75%.
