Initial Findings: Interviews
May 2020
The COVID-19 outbreak has forced companies and individuals to embrace home-based working at such speed and intensity that they have had little opportunity to consider the impact.
While some have suggested this as a new opportunity for employers to embrace flexibility, there are real concerns about poor work-life balance and enhanced domestic tensions.
The current situation is an unprecedented challenge that the Working@home project seeks to explore in all its aspects.
Initial Findings: Online Surveys
June 2020
The first (nearly) 400 respondents to our survey report on their working space, support from their employer, household relations and their wellbeing, amongst others. Here is what they say:
- One in three of our respondents (34%) share their home working space
- Over a third of our respondents (37%) report that household conflicts have increased.
- Wellbeing: Nearly one in four of our respondents report they are doing poorly or very poorly in terms of general health
