Next Friday is "Work from Home" Day"
One week to go until the UK's National Work from Home Day (Friday, May 18). Organisations and employees across the UK, both public and private, are being ecouraged to investigate remote and mobile working.
The organisation behind the initiative notes that even working from home for just one day a week will have a profound impact upon traffic congestion and public transport overcrowding - just look what happens during the school holidays.
Working from home also said to significantly improves productivity, enabling businesses to be more competitive, and enhances work-life balance for staff, with added health and leisure benefits.
Work Wise Week is being staged by Work Wise UK, a major five-year initiative, supported by the TUC and CBI, to encourage the widespread adoption of new smarter working practices, such as home working, across the UK."
