Gen Z gets the used/refurbished work PCs – MetaFacts TUP Client Portal

Background:

Economic pressures on employers have encouraged many to carefully manage the computers they provide to employees. This includes some employees being provided used or refurbished computers.

Approach:

MetaFacts surveyed 81,608 online adults in the US, Germany, UK, and Japan from 2018 through 2024 as part of its annual TUP/Technology User Profile study. Within the survey, as part of detailing the multiple devices that respondents regularly use – smartphones, computers, tablets, and game consoles – we have them report on whether the employer-provided computers they use were obtained new or used/refurbished.

This MetaFAQs reports on the percentage of adults who actively use a used or refurbished work computer and details the trend from 2018 to 2024 by country and age generation.
