Among those organizations that required employees to work from home (68% of all and 93% of large organizations), more than half saw a negative impact in moral and motivation (more than double the number seeing benefits). Large numbers of employers also saw a negative impact on productivity.

This survey was carried out among a representative sample of over 700 Canadian managers and executives at the end of 2020. Unlike other business surveys, the sample is fully random and representative of all Canadian businesses.
