Price Comparison: What do You Save Most on When Working From Home?

Working from home can save you 111% on your spending compared with being in the office, according to a recent study which conducted a price comparison.

The research looked into the average cost of expenses associated with working in the office, including the commute and lunchtime purchases, while also factoring in the costs linked to working from home, notably the additional use of electricity and other utilities.

The study found that people will spend, on average, over £1,300 on lunches, £700 more compared to eating in the house while remote-working.

The biggest variation in costs came in, rather predictably, in the daily commute, with those using public transport being stung to the tune of £2,128 if they used the Tube regularly.

The study - a price comparison between the two scenarios - was commissioned by Heating Wise ahead of a tricky decision for many companies and employees; to continue working from home or go back to the office full-time.

June 21^st is the date all social distancing requirements are scheduled to come to an end, including the working from home order for many.

However, for many companies the decision to offer remote-working has already been made. To make the most of the transition, and maintain excellent employee relationships, your company should use a remote workstation assessment scheme.
