Homeworking factsheet

 Homeworking

The growth in the number of people working from home has been enabled by technological and legal advancements and driven by corporate initiatives such as “work life balance” and “flexible working”. 

Businesses are beginning to realise the advantages of introducing homeworking. In addition to any financial savings, where overheads can be reduced, homeworking can benefit an organisation by improving the retention of employees with personal commitments. It can also reduce stress levels and improve motivation with increases in productivity.
