Over half of workers have a hybrid arrangement in place, according to new global figures by EY.
15,000 people across over 20 countries were surveyed as part of the research.
The findings show that the number of employees availing of hybrid work has increased significantly from 33% before the pandemic.
For those working a mix of remote and office, the most common arrangement is one to two days remote per week.
The EY Mobility Consumer Index reveals that 62% of workers and students are now using public transport to get to and from work, up 4% when compared to last year.
Meanwhile, public transport usage for non-work activities is up 3% to 37%.
Julia Ann Corkery, Partner, EY Ireland Government and Infrastructure Advisory, said the global trends in today's report are similar to what we are seeing emerge here in Ireland.
"Latest public transport numbers indicate that the return to office-based work is certainly increasing with many employers and employees seeking more opportunities to bring their teams together to collaborate as well as integrate new colleagues," she said.
The report also highlights how Gen Z and Millennials increasingly choose public transport over private cars.
"The cost-of-living crisis may be a partial explanation here, but trends and surveys indicated that these generations are also acutely conscious of their carbon footprint and more open to multi modal transport," Ms Corkery said.
"Ireland is perhaps not as far along in terms of the use of micro-mobility devices as other countries, but e-bikes, electric scooters and shared bikes need to be carefully considered as part of our future planning," she added.
The signing into law of the Road Traffic and Roads Act 2023 recently paves a way forward for e-scooters will be regulated and used in Ireland.
