Hybrid workers get paid more than in-person and remote workers: Report

With the coronavirus pandemic came the rise of remote and hybrid working, and many people continue to work out of the office, even as the pandemic winds down. According to a report from WFH Research, workers who take a hybrid approach by splitting their time between work and home earn more than those who work entirely remotely or entirely in-person.

The report suggests that workers who follow a hybrid schedule make an average of at least $80,000 per year, and earnings increase based on the number of days they work from home. Workers who work from home one day per week make an average of $80,000 per year. Those who work from home two days per week make an average of $84,000 per year, and those who work from home three or four days per week make an average of $88,000 per year.

Workers who attend in-person all five days of the work week make an average of $55,000 per year, while those who work remotely all five days of the work week make an average of $74,000 per year. The report suggests that differences in earnings between these working arrangements can be attributed to the type of work that is typically performed in-person versus remotely.

Jobs that require employees to be fully present in-person – such as service or specialty jobs – tend to offer lower wages, whereas remote work often includes jobs that require a college education and involve more knowledge-based tasks that do not require physical labor.
