Working from home could save workers up to £5.73 per day, according to research by Banner, but many organisations still haven’t had the chance to fully work out a hybrid working model. A single day of home working per week could save the average person between £22.92 and £28.65 each month, or a whopping £297.96 per year, when factoring in average commuting costs, a morning coffee and lunch.
The data, collated by the full-service workplace supplies company, shows the potential for hybrid working to take the sting out of the cost-of-living crisis. As businesses in every sector struggle to fill positions, hybrid working has become a HR must-have.
However, many businesses rushed into a hybrid working model during the 2020 lockdown and are still yet to fully optimise and balance cost-saving home working days, with the social, collaborative and productivity benefits of working in an office, according to Banner.
