Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Statistics Canada has produced several studies on work from home. This article synthesizes the key findings of these studies and identifies questions for future research.
Release date: 2021-10-27 - Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202100500001Description:
As is now well known, the COVID-19 pandemic substantially increased work from home in Canada. This “Spotlight on data and research” estimates to what extent Canadians would prefer working from home once the COVID-19 pandemic is over. The answer has potentially significant implications for future traffic congestion, public transit use, greenhouse gas emissions, demand for office space in city centres and for housing in suburbs, and the dynamism (or lack thereof) of retail trade stores and restaurants located in downtown areas.
Release date: 2021-05-26 - Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202100400005Description: The increase in telework observed in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic shows that far more workers are able to work from home than had been observed prior to the pandemic.
The economic costs of the pandemic to this point have been significant and pervasive, both in Canada and other countries. However, the rapid labour market adjustment to telework offers some potential longer-term benefits for a variety of reasons. More broadly, from urban planning and environmental perspectives, more widespread adoption of telework would result in less commuter traffic and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study estimates the extent to which commuter traffic would decrease, which modes of transportation would see the largest decreases and the resulting implications for GHG emissions if the Canadian economy were to operate at its maximum telework capacity, expressed relative to the commuter levels that prevailed before the pandemic.

A look at the potential impact of telework on public transit and greenhouse gas emissions using 2015 data ArchivedStats in brief: 11-627-M2021040Description: This infographic examines the potential effects on public transit use, traffic congestion, and greenhouse gas emissions if all Canadians who usually work outside the home in jobs that can be done from home started to telework.Release date: 2021-04-22
- 5. Working from home: Productivity and preferences ArchivedStats in brief: 45-28-0001202100100012Description:
To what extent are teleworkers more or less productive now relative to when they were at their usual place of work? For those who are less productive, what are the main barriers to productivity? Once the pandemic is over, how many Canadians would prefer to work most of their hours at home or outside the home?
Answers to these questions are crucial to inform discussions about the sustainability of telework in a post COVID-19 context.
To shed light on these questions, this study uses the supplement to the Labour Force Survey of February 2021.
