As we move to a post pandemic world, the global shift back to in office work is beginning,albeit slowly. Most respondents in the US, UK, Germany, and China still work from home,but 20% of them anticipate doing more office work over the next 12 months. Nearly 90% of respondents in Japan anticipate continuing to work from home, with 40% of respondents in India expecting more remote working than the previous 12 months.
The number of respondents expecting to make voice and video calls for work match this trend, with a slight decrease in the amount of work video calls they will need to make in 2022
vs. the height of the pandemic. However, this is counterbalanced by a heightened need to use audio devices during commuting and office work.
As the new hybrid approach to working continues, manufacturers, particularly in the enterprise category, will need to ensure their devices can support robust and high quality voice and video calls, at work, at home and on the go.
