About this listen

Office vacancy rates in the U.S. have reached record highs in early 2026, reflecting a sustained shift toward hybrid work rather than a temporary disruption. Workers now spend significantly more time outside the office than before 2020, and that behavioural change is shaping how companies use physical space. Long leases are slowing the adjustment, but organisations are gradually downsizing and redesigning offices around collaboration. Hybrid work patterns have stabilised globally, reinforcing a new baseline. For remote and distributed teams, the office is becoming one part of a broader system rather than the central place where all work happens.
