Ask HN: Where can I find statistics about remote work?

8 pointsadamof13y ago4 comments

I am writing a blog post about remote work in terms of large-scale long-term software engineering projects.

Could anyone point me to some statistics about that? I am specifically interested in statistics about people who work from a different location or outside the office for at least 3 days a week.

Thanks! Stefan

Are you researching the US? If yes, the Bureau Of Labor statistics has this information: http://www.bls.gov/bls/proghome.htm#employment

I remember that most of the research seems to refer to it as teleworking.
