Working Remotely Not a Priority for Young People

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Working remotely takes a back seat as young people prioritize other aspects at work, a Credit Suisse Survey says.

A good boss and a good salary are the top priorities among an international group of young people surveyed online by market and opinion research company gfs.bern and Credit Suisse published Tuesday.

Working from home and flexible working hours, which gained importance in prior years, are no longer top priorities among young people, the survey found.

Instead, an employer’s tolerance and generosity toward employees were mentioned as very important, while team diversity and environmental friendliness featured in the mid-range of priorities.

Another shift can be seen in the confidence levels and concerns of this group.

While those surveyed two years ago were focused on the pandemic and sociopolitical issues, this year’s results show that the younger generation’s confidence in the future has declined significantly, with many concerned about the war in Europe.

The survey, which aims to provide insight into the lifestyles, problems, and attitudes of young people, was sent to 1,000 young people between 16 and 25 years of age in Switzerland, Brazil, the US and Singapore.
