The whole world\u2019s desk workers were forced to log in remotely<\/a> for well over a year. And even though many people are able to return to their offices and commence life as normal – depending on where you live, of course – it\u2019s turned into somewhat of a permanent fixture.<\/p>\n

Companies everywhere have realized that the output they need is still delivered without putting bums on seats. This has led to the decision for many businesses to allow their employees the chance to continue working from home if they wish to, at least until the world returns entirely to normal.<\/p>\n

Employees are generally happier, they have more time to spend with their families, and there are no more long commutes or fighting through rush hour traffic.<\/p>\n
