According to Statistics Canada , remote work rose to 40% in April 2020 and fell to 18.7% as of May 2024 .

Virtual worlds and virtual reality (VR) afford us the ability to collaborate in virtual spaces.

Some companies argue that remote work lacks "water cooler moments" that can spark innovation.

Users interact with VR systems with 3D input devices such as controllers or wands, tracked in 3D.

Remote work in the metaverse may appeal to early adopters or companies looking to experiment with virtual spaces, but it is unlikely to become a mainstream solution in the immediate future.

Until issues of user interaction, ergonomics and cybersickness are resolved, remote work will not be ready to fully replace traditional office environments.
