Frequently Asked Questions
In 2025, **7.5%** of employed persons in Slovenia usually worked from home, 1.5pp below the EU-27 average of 9%. The indicator measures persons for whom home is the primary work location on the majority of their working days, as defined by Eurostat's EU Labour Force Survey.
Slovenia's usually-from-home rate was 6.9% in 2019. It peaked at **10.8%** in 2021 as pandemic restrictions prompted widespread shifts to remote work. By 2025 the rate had partially retreated to 7.5%, settling 0.6pp above the pre-COVID baseline — suggesting a lasting structural change in Slovenia's working patterns.
At 7.5% in 2025, Slovenia ranks around the EU median for home working penetration, 1.5pp below the EU-27 benchmark. For context, the highest EU rate is approximately 21% (Finland) and the lowest around 1.3% (Romania). Slovenia's position reflects its mix of knowledge-economy and in-person employment.
The series spans 2002 to 2025. The rate hovered near 3.5% in 2002 — its lowest recorded level — before the pandemic-driven surge to a peak of 10.8% in 2021. Since then, the rate has partially normalised, with the 2025 reading of 7.5% indicating that a meaningful share of the pandemic-era shift has been retained.
