Poor working conditions | The cost-of-living crisis is hindering remote workers

The past six months haven’t been easy for many remote workers. Energy bills are at an all-time high, and over winter remote workers either needed to suffer in a freezing home, put up with extortionately high energy prices, or work elsewhere.

A report from Talk Talk found that 90% of remote employees were worried that working at home would increase their bills over winter. As a result, one-in-ten remote workers had decided to work from alternative locations and library use went up a staggering 147%. Winter is over, but economic strain is continuing to put pressure on those working remotely – what impact is this likely to have on UK workers and businesses?
