The road to permanent remote working
Across the globe, employees and employers alike are recognizing the possible benefits that this new working environment offers. Chief among these, is the substantial reduction in costs. Businesses no longer have to spend a stupefying amount on office rent, and employees can swap cramped and overpriced flats in the city for affordable housing elsewhere; potentially even helping to add a new lease of life to the UK’s chronically underfunded regions. Long gone are wasted hours spent on long commutes, and for the most part, we are working a lot more productively.
