Key drivers

  • June 2026 level was 21.7 percent
  • Hybrid work share remains near post-pandemic plateau
  • July seasonality is possible because series is not seasonally adjusted
  • Weak labor-market conditions may reduce worker bargaining power for telework
  • White-collar occupational mix supports persistence

Resolve to the first BLS Employment Situation release for July 2026, Table A-41, not seasonally adjusted, row 'Total, 16 years and over', column 'People who teleworked or worked at home for pay' under percent distribution. Use the one-decimal percentage printed at initial release; do not use later revisions or corrected same-day replacements unless BLS explicitly withdraws the initial table before publication.
