Working from home may be fuelling a measurable rise in depression and poor mental health, according to new academic research that carries particular weight for Britain, a country recently named the work-from-home capital of Europe.
The study, reported by the Telegraph, found that as much as one third of the overall increase in mental distress since the pandemic can be traced back to the rise of remote employment, raising direct questions for a UK labour market where remote and hybrid working have become deeply entrenched.
