Abstract
The current literature on the implications of an increasingly remote workforce for workers’ career mobility is unclear. This paper examines the impact of remote work on career progression, as defined by organizational and external occupational changes. The paper employs a difference-in-differences (DiD) approach to compare remote and non-remote workers across such proxies over time. The analysis controls for education, demographics, and industry to establish a causal link between remote schedules and career development. The findings indicate that teleworking is associated with a 0.13 greater mobility rate compared to in-person workers.
