Study of 27 countries finds the average daily time savings for remote work is 72 min per person. Workers allocate 40% of the saved time to their jobs, 11% to caregiving, and 34% to leisure.

Working from home saves employees 2 hours a week in commute time, and they’re spending it in ways CEOs don’t expect

CEOs like Elon Musk and James Gorman say remote workers are less productive. But new research from the NBER indicates otherwise.

Workers save the cost of commuting, the cost of lunch/ coffee, work clothes, shoes & bags, dry cleaning, etc etc.
Employers save money too and get more productive workers.
Better for the environment.
Better for everyone all the way around. A real no-brainer. No wonder Wall Street & conservatives don’t like it.
