Today’s workforce is more agile and mobile than it has ever been. The way we work has also changed rapidly in today’s digital economy. Teleworking has become a fairly accepted practice. This is due to advances in internet access, technology and collaborative tools such as video conferencing.
However, teleworking has not always been a savoured work environment. In 2013, former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer unleashed a titanic of controversy when she decreed that employees from Yahoo will no longer be able to work from home. Ever since then, managers to CEOs have debated whether working from home boosts employee productive or not. Hoping to put this to rest, Nicholas Bloom, a professor from Stanford University recently published his research. Based on data from a two year study it shows a significant productivity boost from working from home.
