Technology has changed the way we live and especially the way we work. For many jobs, workers no longer need to be in the office building. People can telework: they can work at home or in any place where they can use the necessary technology.
It is easy to think that this freedom of working is good for workers and for families. But as it turns out, teleworking is both good and bad. A new report looks at the advantages and disadvantages of teleworking at home. It looks at 15 countries including Argentina, Brazil, India, Japan, the United States and 10 European nations.
According to Vargas, the lead author of the report, the study finds that about 20% of people in Europe who work in an office are reported to have high levels of stress. However, there are over 40% of stressed-out people in Europe among those who deal with busy work at home. He says those stressed-out people who work at home have trouble sleeping. The report also shows that teleworkers say that they often work alone and are likely to work longer than in the office.
But the report also says there are advantages for those who telework part-time, or not all the time. It says this is good not only for the workers, but also for leaders and companies. " The findings show that if workers do it on a part-time basis, this way of working can turn out to be positive results for workers, leaders and companies. " The report adds, " Two or three days per week seems to be the sweet spot. " Half the time in the office and half the time outside the office seems to be perfect.
Vargas explains that many organisations have developed some working rules to solve this problem. They set maximum(最大量) numbers of days per week, during which people can work outside the work-site. Usually, workers are able to telework two or three days a week.
