ClickOut Media survey reveals third of workers would consider rejecting job if three or more office days required
Concerns around increased office days also highlighted as working from home remains an expectation
A survey commissioned by iGaming marketing firm ClickOut Media has reinforced the company’s fully remote working policy as over 30% of UK workers said they would consider turning down a job if it required more than three days in the office per week.
The survey of 2,000 UK workers also revealed that a third of those asked were worried that their employer would increase the number of mandatory office days.
Over 30% said they would prefer four or even five days of working from home per week, with the main reasons being avoiding a commute, less money spent on travelling and food, the ability to manage personal tasks, and fewer interruptions.
The results highlight the importance of a flexible, hybrid set up with companies in the gambling industry and beyond risking missing out on recruiting great talent if it imposes strict rules around office attendance.
ClickOut Media, a global multi-channel marketing firm who employs thousands of industry content creators, has a fully remote working policy, encouraging its team to work from anywhere in the world. The policy has enabled ClickOut Media to find the best global talent, offering its employees great freedom and independence.
The survey cements the desire for this flexible approach at a time when more employers, including Amazon and the US government, are requiring all personnel to work in the office five days a week, ending hybrid work arrangements that had allowed for some remote work.
Neil Roarty, Gambling Head Analyst at ClickOut Media, said: “This survey emphatically demonstrates that flexible, remote work is no longer a perk, it’s a core expectation.
“Businesses that cling to outdated, rigid office policies are not only risking talent acquisition, but they’re also fundamentally misreading the modern workforce. At ClickOut Media, we’ve always believed in empowering our team with the freedom to work from anywhere, and these findings only reinforce that commitment.”
