25% of U.S. Companies Plan to Increase Required In-Office Days by 2025
Key findings from the ResumeBuilder survey on return-to-office (RTO) policies in 2025:
More Companies Requiring Employees to Return to the Office:
- 70% of companies plan to increase or maintain in-office days in 2025.
- Half of companies require employees to be in the office 4 to 5 days a week.
RTO Policies Are Leading to Talent Loss:
- 80% of companies have lost talent due to their RTO mandates.
- Top reasons employees leave include lack of flexibility, long commutes, and better remote-work opportunities elsewhere.
Business Leaders Support RTO:
- 93% of business leaders believe employees should be in the office.
- 70% of companies offer incentives to encourage employees to return to the office.
Despite RTO Policies, Some Employees Continue Working Remotely:
- Fewer than 1% of companies have eliminated in-person work entirely.
- 38% of companies require employees to be in the office 3 days a week.
Companies That Don’t Offer Work Flexibility May Lose Talent:
- Work-life balance is a priority for many employees.
- Some employees cannot or do not want to return to the office due to relocation, family responsibilities, or health issues.
Overall, the survey indicates that RTO is a major trend in 2025, but companies that lack flexibility may risk losing talent.
In summary, the survey highlights a clear divide between business leaders’ desire to maintain a physical office presence and the preferences of many employees for remote-work flexibility. This ongoing conflict will likely continue to shape workplace policy decisions in the coming years as companies seek to balance productivity with talent satisfaction and retention.
