Only 52 per cent of respondents said their employers provided them remote working options.
SINGAPORE: About two in five workers in Singapore said in a survey that they would not accept a job if they are unable to work from home or if the job does not afford flexible work hours.
Flexible work hours was seen as an important criteria by 80 per cent of respondents, with only 60 per cent saying that their jobs provided them with this option. Ms Jaya Dass, managing director at Randstad Singapore and Malaysia said: “Even though flexible working arrangements are important to employees in Singapore, not all companies are seen to be offering it as an option after the pandemic. As such, employees who value the flexibility to decide when and where they want to work may seek to work for other employers that offer these options."
More than half, 52 per cent, also said that they would quit their jobs if it prevented them from enjoying life.
