British commuters want to reduce their travel times and increase productivity through remote working but their bosses are less than keen.
According to research as part of National Commute Smart Week, which looked into the attitudes towards the daily commute by workers and how they thought the time could be better used, British commuters waste 4.6 million hours commuting every day.
Home working was the most popular solution, gaining support of 34 per cent of the 1,970 people surveyed, while a further 32 per cent thought technology should be better utilised for flexible and remote working.
However, almost half (46 per cent) of the respondents claimed their employer was a barrier to these “commute smart” ideas as many wouldn’t allow them to do it.
But this could actually be leading to decreased motivation and productivity, as remote working technology to gain increased flexibility means that motivation and productivity levels in office staff could rise as people feel more in control of their own destiny.
Work Wise UK, is one of the organisers of the week and believe it’s all about looking at ways that UK workers can improve their work-life balance by reducing the strain and stress caused by commuting.
The survey reveals there is a lot of frustration amongst British workers that could easily be reduced if more businesses adopted and embraced smarter working practices.
