Asian Pacific region tops global office attendance rates: JLL
As in-office hopes linger, workplace participation is anticipated to increase. JLL includes that workers appreciate the office as a centre for socialisation, development and professional growth. “The workplace has always been, and will continue to be, central to work experience and society,” stated Susheel Koul, JLL’s chief executive officer of work designs, Asia Pacific.
JLL’s study suggests that, in spite of an international return to the workplace, Asia Pacific (Apac) employees remain in the work enviroment than their equals in the United States and UK. In a Dec 1 news release, the consultancy mentions that whilst office presence in the US and UK averages approximately 2 days a week, Apac nations demonstrate higher participation, equating over 4 days per week.
Typically, employees around the world spend merely over three days each week in the workplace, with top attendance on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, says JLL. It includes that variations in office attendance throughout different industry are largely thanks to a mix of cultural subtleties, living plans and many other structural elements.
New workplace participation mandates and evolving hybrid policies have actually resulted in employees devoting even more time in the office. A year-long study conducted by JLL throughout over 20,000 office workers globally shows that since 1H2023, 80% of workers were spending 3 or even more days weekly in the office, compared to 51% in 1H2022 and 59% in 2H2022. “Overall, most international organisations around the world (87%) are encouraging their employees to work from the office at the very least some of the time,” JLL includes.

” As more workers go back to the office several days a week, we’re continuing to find out about the moving choices for methods of working and just how we can better utilize technology and adaptable setups to satisfy these requirements.”
In the Apac area, Taiwan leads with employees going to the workplace 4.7 days a week, followed by India (4.4 days), South Korea (4.2 days), Japan (3.8 days), and Singapore (3.4 days). Thailand logs an once a week workplace appearance of 3.3 days, while Australia stands at 3.1 days.
Koul suggests creating strong areas catering to collective and centered job to satisfy workers’ recurring need for human network. He adds this will be one of the most reliable technique to encourage regular office appearance.
