In an email sent to Narcity, Indeed said that people are now valuing money more than anything else when it comes to looking for a new job.

Beyond that, nearly 55% of Canadians said they feel comfortable making demands about their working location, their schedule, or their hours.

Before the pandemic, only about 49% said they would have been comfortable having that type of conversation.

Out of all the demands an employee might make, most people (58%) said they would have no problem demanding a more flexible schedule.
