These past few weeks, the world has been tested to its limits, with the

-19 outbreak.

This

has forced most of us to stay in our houses, in order to prevent its spread. So, a lot of individuals have started telecommuting in order to continue their jobs. In

this

essay, I will discuss the positive and negative aspects of

this

trend. On the one hand, not all individuals can work from home, which in scenarios, like the one we are living at the moment, can create anomalies in the money distribution.

For example

, people that are hired in the service and construction sector cannot work through the internet, because their job requires their presence in their workspace.

Finally

, telecommuting can leave people easily distracted and not able to complete their workload in time, while the absence of co-workers can lead them into antisocial behaviour.

On the other hand

,

this

tendency allows workers to have freedom over labour hours.

Furthermore

,

this

gives them the opportunity to complete their daily chores and workload in a more flexible matter. To illustrate, a study carried out by the University of Keele showed that, individuals that can perform their job from home are more satisfied than those that do it outside of their household, due to the lack of time pressure.

Moreover

, it saves them time, because there is no need of commuting, which for some of us, might take hours. Taking everything into consideration, telecommuting is the way of the future and has revolutionized the way we work. But, we have to be cautious in order to prevent the loss of human interaction, which plays a vital role in our personal development.
