The Impact of Remote

We know that remote work unlocks positive social economic and environmental change for individuals, employers and local communities. This month we have a combo of social and economic impact!

Flexible Work Key to Retaining Older Workers

A recent Standard Life report (looking at the UK market only) finds that 37% of workers over 55 would consider quitting if flexible hours were restricted, and 24% would accept a pay cut for more flexibility. The research highlights that better flexible work options such as remote or hybrid models could reduce the early exit of 440,000 over-50s annually from key industries.

With strategic sectors losing experienced talent and facing Β£31 billion in lost output each year, expanding flexible work is vital to keeping older workers in the workforce and lowering economic inactivity.

Check out the full report here.

The State of Remote IE

Each month we track the amount of remote jobs that are listed on LinkedIn for Ireland. At the end of August 2025 the numbers looked like this πŸ‘‡

18% of jobs listed are remote and 24% are hybrid which = a total of over 40% of jobs are flexible - and that has been consistent over the last quarter.

Check out the tracker here.

The # of remote jobs has also been covered by RTE recently and while a different methodology has been used to calculate the numbers by LinkedIn vs the above (simple count) the total # is not so different with the article stating that β€œ36.3% of all advertised roles in Ireland offer flexible arrangements, this is more than five percentage points above the European average of 31.3%.” πŸ™Œ
