More than one-fifth (22 per cent) of Canadian companies say they\u2019ll adjust the pay of remote workers who move to a different location, according to a recent survey.<\/p>\n

Staffing firm Robert Half Canada Inc. surveyed 500 employees and 180 human resources managers. The survey found 44 per cent of staff said they\u2019d consider relocating, but only 16 per cent would be willing to move if it involved taking a pay cut. Meanwhile, almost 70 per cent of companies surveyed said they\u2019ll base salaries on the company\u2019s office location for the time being, while nine per cent say they haven\u2019t decided on their approach.<\/p>\n

The survey results come months after many Canadian companies required staff to work from home in hopes of stopping the spread of the coronavirus in pandemic hotspots. Indeed, as the pandemic continues to rage, companies, such as LinkedIn Corp. and its parent company, Microsoft Corp.<\/a>, have introduced new flexible working policies in preparation for the future of work post-pandemic. However, some companies, including Facebook Inc., have warned staff that if they move away from their office locations and continue working remotely, their pay could be decreased or hiked to match the market conditions in their new location.<\/p>\n
