Two in five flexi-work to avoid commute
New research commissioned by Regus, the world’s largest provider of flexible workplaces, suggests that many employers are finally freeing staff from the daily commute, with two in five professionals (39%) able to work from locations other than the company’s main offices for at least half the week. This helps them reduce the cost and stress of with commuting and reclaim the hours lost in limbo between their work and home lives.
The 2500-strong poll found that this new flexible workstyle benefits employers as well as staff. Over two fifths (43%) of workers report that they put in longer hours when they don’t have to commute, highlighting the link between flexible location and productivity. 67% of workers also say they spend more time with their partner and family and 60% spend more time exercising and getting fitter.
