Nokia Sticking With Remote Work Policy Through 2021

Nokia will let its 92,000 employees in 130 countries continue to work remotely up to three days a week after Jan. 1, increasing support for “flexible working hours and fully virtual working,” said the company Tuesday. Nokia canvassed employees in late 2020, and 91% said they maintained or increased their productivity working from home. The average employee wants to work two to three days a week remotely, up from an average of two before COVID-19. And 81% still prefer to come into the office “for at least some of the time during their working week to collaborate and connect with colleagues,” said Nokia.
