2019冠状病毒病危机迫使社会发生巨大变化，包括迫使许多人在家工作（WFH），以限制疾病的传播。长期以来，在家工作的能力一直被认为是一种额外福利，但我们对实际上有多少工作可以在家完成的估计很少。本文提出了一种方法来估计这些工作的份额。对于每一种职业，我们通过要求亚马逊土耳其机械公司（MTurk）的受访者根据2008年国际职业标准分类（ISCO-08）标准的描述评估是否可以在家中执行相应的任务来获得WFH友好措施。然后，通过将这些措施与职业就业的劳动统计数据相结合，可以估计经济中WFH友好型工作的份额。以挪威为例，我们发现大约38%的挪威工作可以在家里完成。挪威的结果还表明，这一流行病和政府试图缓解这一危机可能对工作人口产生相当不均衡的影响。那些已经处于不利地位的人往往不太可能在家里从事工作。
The Covid-19 crisis has forced great societal changes, including forcing many to work from home (WFH) in an effort to limit the spread of the disease. The ability to work from home has long been considered a perk, but we have few estimates of how many jobs are actually possible to be performed from home. This paper proposes a method to estimate the share of these jobs. For each occupation, we obtain a WFH friendly measure by asking respondents from Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) to evaluate whether the corresponding tasks can be performed from home based on the descriptions from the International Standard Classification of Occupations 2008 (ISCO-08) standard. The share of WFH friendly jobs in an economy can then be estimated by combining these measures with the labor statistics on occupational employments. Using Norway as an illustrating example, we find that approximately 38% of Norwegian jobs can be performed from home. The Norwegian results also suggest that the pandemic and the government’s attempts to mitigate this crisis may have a quite uneven impact on the working population. Those who are already disadvantaged are often less likely to have jobs that can be performed from home.
