Seven out of 10 Indians prefer working from office than from home, know what else survey reveals
72% of Indians believe that it is better to work from the office than to work from home as it is having a negative effect on one's career.
It's been a year and a half that Indians have been forced to work from home due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and they already seem to be bored with this work culture. A survey conducted by American business and employment-oriented online service company Linkedin revealed this fact. In the survey conducted on more than 1,000 employees working in different companies across India, 72% of Indians believe that it is better to work from the office than to work from home as it is having a negative effect on one's career.
Dr Ruchi Sharma, Psychiatrist from Delhi believes after a year and a half, perhaps the time has come for the companies to prepare a model in which the interest of the employees along with that of the companies are also taken care of. This is because depression or work distress can decrease the performance of employees instead of increasing it.
71% of the people surveyed feel that working from the office instead of working from home will give them more favour from their boss and seniors. Some people feel that going to the office means being in touch and communicating with your boss daily. This will help to be in their good books and in turn help in promotion and salary rise. They feel that while working from home they can only be in touch with their bosses online which is not that fruitful.
