WORKERS in the fields of computer science, real estate, finance and insurance experienced the greatest bumps in working from home during the first years of the pandemic, while it barely budged for laborers in occupations like stockers, truck operators and order fillers, according to US Census Bureau figures released Tuesday.

The share of employees working on-site in computer and mathematical jobs went from 60 percent in 2019 to 30 percent in 2021, and it went from 67 percent to 43 percent for workers in insurance, finance and real estate jobs, according to figures from the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP).
