Weekly working time in home office in relation to weekly total working time, shares of employed men and women, in percent (based on respondents who have the option to work from home). The number of cases differs by data collection month and ranges between 646 and 2457 for men and between 628 and 1971 for women. Values for “before corona” are based on the quotient of the answers to the two questions from wave 1 (May 2020): “Thinking about the time before the corona crisis, how many hours per week did your usual working hours consist of, including overtime worked, extra work, etc.?” and “Thinking back to before the corona crisis, how many hours a week did you regularly work from home before the crisis?”. Values for each month are based on the quotient of responses to the two questions, “Thinking about your last work week, how many hours did you work at home?” and “Thinking think about your last work week, how many hours did you actually work, including regular overtime, extra work, etc.?” The figure is weighted to represent individuals in Germany who had employment subject to social insurance contributions in 2018 and had the option of working at home during the data collection month (for more details on weights, see HOPP Data Manual: https://fdz.iab.de/de/FDZ_Individual_Data/HOPP.aspx)
