People who work from home get more sleep, new study finds

A recent report from the Office of National Statistics has revealed that individuals who work from home enjoy an average of 24 minutes more sleep compared to their office counterparts. This finding comes as part of a broader look into how the changing dynamics of the workplace has had an impact on daily routines in this post-pandemic era. 

The extra sleep time is primarily attributed to the elimination of the daily commute, which is a significant time saver for those who work remotely. Without having to travel between home and a workplace, home workers gain nearly an hour of extra time per day.
