Snowballing costs | WFH staff won't use heating due to price hikes

Whilst many remote workers have found that commuting costs have flattened due to working from home, it seems that other costs are becoming an increasing concern for many, especially throughout the winter months.

In fact, more than one in five employees will not turn the heating on while working from home due to concerns around energy costs.

And it seems that this is a valid concern; due to the energy price cap increase, working from home could cost UK employees almost £30 more per month than their average commuting costs.

According to the latest data discovered by Electric Radiators Direct , 22% of employees said they will not turn their heating on at all while working from home this winter, and almost half said they will be more mindful of their overall energy consumption.
