A recent report by Density highlights the financial implications of return-to-office (RTO) policies on per-employee rent costs, showing an average decrease from $13,500 to $10,600 in March 2025 post-RTO implementation. Additionally, the phenomenon of 'office-moons,' where employees extend remote work just before RTO starts, contributes to a notable 13% drop in office occupancy in the week leading up to re-entry plans, suggesting challenges ahead for companies managing workforce transitions back to physical offices.
According to a new report from Density, per-employee rent costs in U.S. sub-markets in March 2025 averaged $10,600 for companies implementing RTO policies compared to $13,500 pre-implementation.
The report also notes that "office-moons," where employees maximize remote work, lead to a 13% drop in occupancy the week before RTO policies kick in.
