In recent years, the idea of how and where we work went through a seismic shift, with remote work emerging as a dominant force reshaping the traditional office landscape. Almost 12% of the workforce in the United States, amounting to over 18M people<\/strong>, is now working from home, either full time or under a hybrid program that combines office days with remote days.<\/p>\n

Obviously, not all sectors of the economy are equally suitable for remote jobs. In fact, job titles that register the highest share of remote workers encompass three large sectors of the economy. Information-related jobs<\/strong>, which not only include tech workers but also telecommunications and media publishers (everything from books and magazines to music) account for the highest share of people working from home \u2014 almost 26% of all the employees in these branches.<\/p>\n

Professional, scientific and management sectors<\/strong>, which include jobs such as lawyers, architects, researchers and other scientists, as well as managers, are also careers where remote working is quite prevalent: about a quarter of those occupying such positions are working from home.<\/p>\n

Finally, the third sector that boasts plenty of remote workers is finance, insurance, and real estate<\/strong>, with 24% of all employees in these areas being able to work from home. Interestingly, over 11% of public administration jobs are also home based.<\/p>\n
