"Who has to be at work nowadays,"

That sounds incredibly privileged.

If you want to selectively quote out of context go ahead. If you want to quote a 2017 report and claim it's relevant today go ahead.

>Who has to be at work nowadays

Nearly all workers that perform non-mental labour.

You should really consider talking to some less privileged people sometime.

Most of the world's workers aren't white collar, are they?

Even if they were, are all white collar jobs allowing full remote these days?

You helpfully cut the other than people who tend to work in jobs which mean shift patterns

Everyone I know that works in a location works shift patterns or other non 9-5 jobs. My wife might start at 7.30 am one day, or another day not finish to 9pm.

If you're working 9-5 every day it's increasingly unlikely you need to be in a specific place to do so. Those who do work in specific places tend to have to cover a far larger range than 9-5 and thus require alternate child care arrangements anyway.
