ZAGREB, 18 March (Hina) – A survey by Alma Career Croatia, which operates the job search portal MojPosao, found that most Croatian workers believe remote work should be a legal right.

Among 500 respondents, 87% said Croatia should legally guarantee the right to work remotely at least two days a week where feasible. Many see it not as a perk but as a logical step in labour market development.

Participants highlighted that physical presence at the workplace does not guarantee higher productivity, with many feeling more efficient at home. They also cited cost savings for employers on office space, equipment and utilities.

Some suggested a four-day workweek as an alternative in roles where remote work is not possible. Around 11% support remote work but prefer it remain a matter for internal company arrangements, while roughly 2% oppose it, arguing it could disadvantage employees whose roles cannot be done remotely.
