Work-life balance | WFH sees staff put in THIS many extra hours

One of the central issues facing the HR function over the course of the pandemic, as professionals have been operating largely from home, has been the impact on work-life balance.

With England currently in another national lockdown, a new study from NordVPN Teams has found that those working from home amid the pandemic put in ten extra hours per week, compared to when they were in the office.

The new data, which was reported by the Daily Mail, uncovered that the average working week has increased by 25% in the UK, which is likely to have a negative impact on work-life balance.

The firm collected data regarding the average usage of its business VPN servers last month and compared it against that of last year, which included pre-coronavirus levels.
