The survey results detail the impact of the Delta variant of COVID-19 on SMEs, how SMEs are making adjustments to the workplace, and what the future of the SME workplace might look like. JumpCloud\u2019s 2021 Impact of COVID-19 on SMEs survey represents more than 500 decision-makers from small and mid-sized organizations in both the U.S. and the U.K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSMEs continue to exhibit great resourcefulness, flexibility, and initiative in responding to the pandemic and the Delta variant,\u201d said Rajat Bhargava, CEO of JumpCloud. \u201cAs an SME ourselves, we know the current conditions are extremely fluid, and like the majority of respondents, we had to rethink and delay our office return and hybrid workplace options. While SMEs grapple with how and where employees will work, we are rapidly expanding functionality delivered through the JumpCloud platform with new security like our recently announced <a href=\"https:\/\/jumpcloud.com\/press\/introducing-jumpcloud-protect-free-mobile-multi-factor-authentication\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">one-touch push multi-factor authentication<\/a>, that makes it easier and more cost-effective for small IT teams to adopt advanced security policies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key findings below, including total responses and separate U.S. and U.K. responses.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Difference by Geography, Size of Company, Industry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Businesses in the U.S. South are least likely to mandate vaccines:<\/strong> Whereas 67.9% of U.S. companies in the survey are taking steps regarding mandating vaccinations for employees, in Southern states (AL, AR, FL, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, TX, WV) the number drops to 56.1%.<\/li><li><strong>U.K. is split: <\/strong>72.8% of companies in Greater London are taking steps to mandate vaccinations, whereas only 44.9% in the rest of the U.K. are.<\/li><li><strong>Geographic vaccination outliers:<\/strong> U.S. Northeastern states (CT, ME, MA, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT) are most likely to be taking steps for vaccination (82%) and areas of the U.K. outside of London are the least likely (44.9%).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>COVID-19 Delta Variant Impact <\/strong><strong>\u2013<\/strong><strong> U.S. and U.K.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Rethinking return to the office:<\/strong> 52.8% of respondents are currently rethinking the plan to return to the office.
