Work from Home After the COVID-19 Outbreak
Abstract
Based on rich novel survey data, we document that 35.2 percent of the US workforce worked entirely from home in May 2020, up from 8.2 percent in February.Highly educated, high-income and white workers were more likely to shift to working from home and maintain employment following the pandemic.Individuals working from home daily before the pandemic lost employment at similar rates as daily commuters.This suggests that, apart from the potential for home-based work, demand conditions also mattered for job losses.We find that 71.7 percent of workers that could work from home effectively did so in May.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
