Employees Cite These Benefits as Their Favorite Things About Working From Home
If it seems like every other person you know gets to work from home these days, there's a reason for it. Nearly half of U.S. professionals do their jobs from home on at least a partial basis, reports LinkedIn. And there's lots to be gained from that type of setup. Here are the top reasons employees today enjoy working from home, according to LinkedIn -- and why it pays for you to try to get a piece of that action.
For many employees, commuting is the most aggravating aspect of their job. For some people, it means wasting away in traffic. For others, it means being stuck on cramped buses or trains with strangers day in, day out. Not only that, but commuting can be expensive. It's not surprising, then, that 52% of work-from-home employees say that not having to travel to an office is a perk they appreciate.
