Remote working has forever blurred the lines between our personal and professional lives. Home is no longer simply a land of leisure, it’s somewhere you’re expected to screw your head on and get down to work.
This is easier said than done without a dedicated workspace. We’ve barely lifted the last restrictions, but our homes already look very different.
There are fewer places to sleep, for starters. As a nation we have sacrificed 8.8 million bedrooms on the altar of home-working, Zoopla figures reveal, and nearly five million of these have been turned into offices. Households spent £1,735 on this conversion on average. Nearly seven in ten remote workers think their employers should contribute to the cost of their home offices, but only 30 per cent have.
