Who Works from Home After the Pandemic? https://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:iae:iaewps:wp2025n18&r=&r=bec
"… while worker preferences are relevant, the results suggest that it is the nature of jobs that is the main factor determining who has the option to work from home.
… strong associations between #WFH full days and both occupation and industry
… findings suggest that the growth in WFH may be driving further increases in labour market inequality. WFH comes with obvious benefits for workers such as reduced commuting costs and improved work-family fit, and these benefits are mostly being captured by workers in higher paying jobs and occupations, employed on permanent contracts, and working full-time hours.
That said, those taking advantage of the option to work from home might face long-term career penalties, with evidence from choice experiments suggesting that fully remote workers are at a disadvantage in terms of future promotion and salary increase prospects"
