Generation Z employees — those born between 1997 and 2012 — are the least likely generation to prefer fully remote work, according to a report from Gallup.
Only 23% of Gen Z employees prefer exclusively remote work, compared to 35% of baby boomers, Generation X and millennials, according to the July 22 report.
The findings are based on online surveys with a random sample of 19,043 adults working full or part time in the U.S. The surveys were conducted May 7-16.
Gen Z workers were most likely to prefer a hybrid role (71%), compared to 60% of millennials, 56% of Gen X and 54% of baby boomers.
Fully on-site roles were least popular: 6% for Gen Z, 4% for millennials, 9% for Gen X and 10% for baby boomers. Millennials were most likely to say they would look for a new job if their organization no longer offered remote work (41%), compared to 32% of Gen Z, 28% of Gen X and 26% of baby boomers.
In healthcare, 12.7% of high-paying jobs are available as fully remote, compared to 6.3% across industries, according to a report from career site Ladders.
