The Brazilian labor market is experiencing a significant shift away from full-time remote work toward hybrid and on-site models. A study by Robert Half indicates that full-time remote job openings have decreased to approximately 3%, with most companies requiring employees to be present three to five days per week. Industry sectors like construction and engineering show the highest on-site presence, while the services sector maintains the lowest average.

This trend is further reflected in the Brazilian Shared Services Center (CSC) market. Data from the IEG intelligence platform MIA shows that 74% of studied CSCs have adopted hybrid arrangements. Only 3% of these operations remain entirely remote, while 23% continue to function with a fully in-person model. The transition toward hybrid work is reportedly driven by a need to balance employee autonomy with the necessity of in-person interaction for organizational culture and professional development.
