Abstract

This IDC study forecasts the U.S. mobile worker population by segment across industry verticals and analyzes trends and drivers in mobility. It includes the information worker and frontline worker segments for the United States and tracks segment population growth across major industry verticals as defined by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

"COVID-19's disruption of the U.S. labor force has had a dramatic impact on how large businesses operate and will continue to shape how and where people work in the months to come," said Bryan Bassett, senior research analyst, IDC's Enterprise Mobility: Deployment Strategies program. "The ability to quickly mobilize different segments of a company's workforce with capable and secure mobile solutions has never been more important, and U.S. organizations are signaling that investment in mobile-based management and security solutions will take precedence in 2020 and beyond."
