As a result of the austerity measures introduced last November, the proportion of teleworkers increased significantly to 16 percent from a few percent measured in July and September – GKI Economic Research Ltd. told MTI on Monday.

A representative survey conducted by GKI involving 1,000 people looked at how the austerity measures introduced in November changed employment.
It was found that in addition to teleworkers, the share of part-time employees also increased: the latter reached 9 percent in December, after 1 percent in July and 3 percent in September. This can be explained by the fact that many restaurants and commercial accommodation do not require full-time staff. (MTI)
