During the last years, more individuals prefer to work remotly to do it on site. Although this trend has many advantages, it also causes some problems.
In pandemic, most workers were forced to work at home due to health reasons. However, evethough it was more than 4 years ago, many employees still work from their houses, and even, companies look for professionals who have access to internet and are able to do all that is required without going to the offices. One of the reasons is that employeers can save money because they do not have to have a big space where people can work. Besides, they do not have to pay for electricity, water, internet etc.
Another motivation to do it is that their workers do not spend time moving around the city, what helps them to focus on their responsabilities and save money at the same time.
On the other hand, this tendency provokes some issues as people cannot disconect from work easily. For example, if they work between 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m, but if they had not finished what they have to do, they would have to work after their shifts have finished, what causes that they work more for the same salary. Furthermore, some individuals may feel sad as result of not socializing with others during the day. This could cause some depression and physical problems.
Overall, working from home has solved many problems for example, it has helped to reduce traffic, it has saved companies and employees money, and in terms of efficientcy, professionals can spend more time on their tasks that they have to do. That said, there are many probelms that are affecting people mentally and physically, because of they can not go outside to interact nor stop working as while they have wifi and are connected to the company, they will have to continue responding to any requirements from their bosses.
