The post-pandemic push to get workers back to the office is losing steam, with new data revealing that attendance across Australia’s CBDs has plateaued at just over three-quarters of pre-COVID levels.

According to a Barrenjoey research note, average weekday office attendance nationally sat at 76.6 per cent of pre-pandemic benchmarks in the March quarter, up just 1.1 percentage points from the previous quarter, suggesting the return-to-office momentum may have peaked.
