This is what a survey by Citrix Systems showed, which points out that Brazilian workers prefer to continue working from home. Of those interviewed, 54% responded that, even with the possibility of face-to-face return, they prefer remote work. The justification is to avoid transportation costs.
The survey was carried out with 5,000 workers, and Brazil occupies third place in the ranking of seven countries surveyed. At the top of the list is the United States, where 57% of workers prefer to remain at home office due to the increase in fuel costs. Australia appears in second place, also with 54% of respondents preferring to continue working from home.
Considering all countries surveyed, almost half of workers report that the increase in fuel prices somehow affects plans to return to the face-to-face model.
The survey also reveals that 87% of Brazilians consider it fair for employers to provide a subsidy for transport and fuel costs, to offset the cost of travel.
Last week, Brazil reached the mark of the highest price measured in the weekly survey, carried out by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels, reaching an average price of R$ 7.29. In the same week, a city in Santa Catarina registered the value of a liter of gasoline at R$ 8.99. With prices so high, it is almost unfeasible for workers to pay for transportation to physical companies.
