Since the start of lock-down many businesses have diversified to allow their staff to work from home. Although lock-down is being relaxed in England, the position remains unchanged in Wales (as at 26 May 2020).
Additionally, many businesses who have permitted homeworking are surprised and pleased with the results and are keen to continue this practice going forward.
Twitter for example has announced that its employees can now choose to work from home “forever”.
Not only does homeworking reduce the overheads for many businesses it reduces the organisation’s carbon footprint and could become the new “norm”.
