According to a survey of 1,500 respondents, 47% of those aged 35 to 44 strongly agree that being off camera during virtual meetings is considered rude.
The study shows that remote work culture has given rise to new etiquette expectations, with camera usage becoming a key element in fostering engagement and connection.
Some employees have expressed concerns over privacy and the potential negative impact on work-life balance due to constant camera usage.
Remote work experts suggest that camera-on policies should be balanced with the recognition of employee privacy and the need for occasional breaks from being constantly visible during work hours.
