alt Hacker NewsBesides, the premise seems stupid to me. Employers don't like wfh because of perceived lower performance. 'For years, many employers have worried that work-from-home arrangements leave employees isolated, disconnected from coworkers and more likely to leave their jobs.' this is just stupid PR, no different than netflix saying they're cutting down on shared accounts to give subscribers greater "personalization" and "covenience". employers care about employee health only in so far as it bears on performance. this stupid study is investigating the stupid pretext employers give for demanding rto.
interestingly moving between jobs is more likely to increase workers salaries. Would be interested if one of the reasons stopping wfh is to prevent salaries from increasing. There is a physical barrier to finding new employers that are further away from where you live and less jobs available overall in the area you live compared to the entire country/world. People who wfh can work almost anywhere, do not have a moving barrier and can job hop their way to higher salaries
